Had to find parking a couple of streets away. Clean room and bathroom. TV was annoying to operate and poor sound. Plenty of teabags etc in the room, something that many places are stingy with. Breakfast was fab. Only one choice, full breakfast, but it was really good. Huge pot of coffee. Very happy with my stay.

The staff were helpful, understanding and friendly especially when responding to our needs and requests. The bar was well stocked with an extensive range off beers and linked well with the tables outside. The breakfast was specific to our wishes and appeared to be so for other guests. The pizzas were good.
In general, the property was poorly maintained. The shower leaked at the shower unit when in use thus always wasting water. The shower door was broken and had to be handled carefully to close and open it. The show doors had not been cleaned for a very long time.
On the last day, we waited until 9:15 for breakfast but as none came so we left.

It was too hot in the room, and there was just one pedestal fan available.
Outside it was really nice in the evening at around 17-20 whereas in the room, it felt like above 25.
Otherwise, it was really nice, everything was clean and neat.

The property seems to be in need of some renovation. The staff were very nice and enjoyed a laugh and joke. Breakfast was good. But at 7-30am way too early. The locals that were in there were more than happy to talk to us. Parking very difficult. Overall a better stay than we expected.

Perfect location, nice manager and staff. Room was small and clean but unable to open windows, so very stuffy. Single room could do with an uplift. If the windows would open, it would make a big difference. Breakfast was great.

A small, but adequate, clean room and shower room, with temperature controlled shower: (it's becoming a necessity. :) ). The towels and bath mat were also of high quality. The breakfast was OK, and there was parking around the back.

Easy to find and with a small to medium sized pub underneath. The room, although fairly basic and small (as reflected in the price) was clean. It had a perfectly acceptable en-suite shower and toilet complete with towels, a small TV set and a kettle with tea and coffee, My only gripe was a musty smell by the door at the bottom of the stairs in the main hallway (might have been coming from the carpet down there). For a budget option I have no complaints though especially as there was a cooked breakfast included in the price and the staff were terrific. Beware though that the rooms all overlook the beer garden which can get noisy at night (an occupational hazard with many rooms over pubs) but overall I enjoyed my stay.

Bed was very comfortable. Shower was powerful, bathroom clean. Walls, however are very thin, you can even hear people snoring. My room was just above the smoking area outside, which set the smoke alarm off. I came downstairs at 7.45 am, all doors were locked, so I couldn't have breakfast.
