Gehorig onhygiënisch verblijf
Pros:

Dat het 5 minuten van mijn bestemming was.

Cons:

De kamer was verre van hygiënisch, het toilet had alles nog van de vorige bewoner, inclusief bruine vlekken op het toilet papier, de bril, haren.
De dag erna weer.
Er was geen ontbijt, enkel een mandje voor je deur al om 11 uur ‘s avonds met een chocolade broodje verpakt in plastic, en 2 fruit stukjes, en voor de rest niemand in het pand te bekennen.
Brand alarm in m’n kamer ging ineens af, niemand te bekennen.
Mega gehorig, en aangezien er een kroeg onder zit verre van ideaal.
Zeker geen aanrader dit ‘hotel’.

Lovely stay in a village location. We would stay again.
Pros:

Good location and nice comfortable clean room.

Cons:

The road was a little noisy but we had the windows wide open because it was a hot night. Don’t think it would be a problem with the windows shut.

Nice pub, great food
Pros:

It’s location and the food was very good

Cons:

You need to be aware this is a pub with rooms not a hotel, as such the room doesn’t have the usual facilities, tv, fridge. Checking in can be complicated if you want to arrive before the pub opens, having said that we were given details on how to gain access and as it happened we were later than we initially informed them and someone was there to sort us out
