Overpriced
Pros:

Location, bed was very comfortable, staff in the pub downstairs were very friendly and helpful

Cons:

Very run down and outdated, over priced for what it was! Bathroom wasn’t the best (toiletries included was a small 2 in 1 soap pump on the wall) black mould around the bath and shower head was full of limescale carpet was all rising in places and coffee milk and sugar hadn’t been topped up before hand so there was none in the room for our stay

Never stay here again.
Pros:

Only like the staff as they were really friendly.

Cons:

The room we stayed in was really out of date. The water pressure in the shower was really low that made it difficult to have a shower. The carpet needs a good clean. Went downstairs and notice the staff making mistakes in food orders that's why we didn't order anything. Noticed the pub closed really early for a Friday.
