Wonderful, family-run hotel with lovely owner, overall great experience to have! Highly recommend
Pros:

The loveliest owner, super friendly and helpful and we loved chatting away with him. Was super accommodating of our needs. I.e. late arrivals and just gave a very homely atmosphere to the place. It made a nice change from a chain hotel and felt a much more personal experience

Cons:

We had one squeaky bed in our room (but we maybe shouldn't have put the person who tosses and turns around at night on that one)

Would definitely recommend it.
Pros:

Cosy, comfortable and excellent host in Stuart, who provides a great start to the day through his full English breakfast!

Cons:

Nothing major, but would have preferred on-site parking, which isn’t available or possible, so guests have to use nearby side streets.

Brilliant, friendly, comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
Pros:

Absolutely amazing hotel, especially for the price. The room was clean and had all the facilities, the host was incredibly friendly and helpful. I slept really well, the room and beds were comfy and well layed out. The only thing that suggested that it was a more affordable hotel was the fact that there was a shared bathroom which really didn't bother me at all. On top of all this there was an included breakfast which was just amazing. Would definitely stay here if I needed a hotel in gateshead again.

Cons:
