The overall property was reasonable and the rooms were comfortable, if small.
The toilet and shower facilities were clean.
However, there were some major issues:
(1) There was no cook and hence no hot food available. Also no food on a Sunday evening in the close vicinity.
(2) There was a leak in a sewer waste pipe which was dripping in the restaurant area but it was not closed off.
(3) Although the rooms were generally clean there was a brown smear under the handle in one room. Also a kettle in a room was brown inside and not in a fit state for use.
(4) There were no lounging facilities outside of the hours that staff were on duty.
(5) There was no staff on site overnight and no emergency contact in case of an incident.
Room was small but it was a good price and had everything it needed to have. Only issue was the location of the room meant the free WiFi didn’t work, but other than that it was a lovely place to stay.
Very disappointing hotel, felt like it was all too much trouble for the staff, especially at breakfast. Only continental breakfast don't recall seeing this at the time of booking. Had to ask for fresh pillow case as tge in the room was dirty. Very noisy room
Wi-Fi was only available in the bar. No Wi-Fi at all from room 12. Asked to be moved where there was signal (had a lot of work to do) but unable to help. Booked 3 nights but left after 2. Terrible nights sleep with the sound of HGVs passing by all night. Bed was comfy and room was clean. But won’t be staying again. I did like the Inns history provided in the welcome book.
Stayed for one night for business. Really good location to where I needed to be and very fairly priced.
The lady who runs it was so helpful and very attentive.
The room was basic but perfect for what I needed and the bed was clean and comfortable.
