ACEPTABLE
Pros:

EN REALIDAD LA CAMA ESTABA SUPER INCOMODA, ESTABA HUNDIDA, Y ADEMAS EL PRIMER DIA, DEBIDO A QUE ESTA ARRIBA DE UN BAR, UNA PERSONA ESTABA INTENTANDO ENTRAR AL CUARTO, PENSAMOS QUE SE DEBIO A QUE ESTABA EBRIO PORQUE ESO NO VOLVIO A PASAR. TAMBIEN LOS FINES DE SEMANA TENIA MAS RUIDO DE LO NORMAL POR LA MUSICA, PERO AUN ASI SI VOLVERIA AL HOTEL, SOLO LES SUGIERO PONER UNA CAMA REALMENTE DOBLE PORQUE ESA PARECIA UN SOFACAMA.

Cons:

LA CAMA (ESTABA HORRIBLE)
Y LOS ULTIMOS 5 DIAS NO NOS PUSIERON AGUA

Pros:

The staff
Near shops and buses

Cons:

If you don't drum and bass all into the small hours and the locals beating up each other
Than I would not recommend you stay at the bay horse

Pros:

Location is excellent as right in the Town centre. room is clean. Mixer in the shower was good unlike some of the other rooms.

Cons:

The bed was terrible, it was a "zip n link" bed, which was not zipped correctly, the mattresses kept separating and leaving a gap which made it very uncomfortable to sleep on

We know it’s above the pub so obviously going to be noisy, however the overnight comings and goings were beyond the pubs
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Noise from the pub and noise and door banging from guests.
