A friendly, authentic stay with good food and beer, but the room and bathroom felt outdated.
Pros:

Good food and beer, friendly people in the surrounding area and in the town, and I liked that it was not an overly touristy place.

Cons:

The bathroom and the room felt outdated and could benefit from renovation.

The hotel was not worth £144. That was the real issue.
Pros:

We wouldn't stay again. If I had to say one thing I'd say the room was well decorated but the fact that the floor was squint was not.

Cons:

The breakfast was mediocre and the instant coffee was not good. The hotel had a fully operating coffee machine and had the coffee been good it may have changed our view slightly,

Great overnight stay, with easy parking and comfy bed!
Pros:

Great location, easy parking, nice newly decorated room with comfy bed and room had everything required, including USB plugs, tea/coffee making facilities, toiletries, and nice towels. Room was on top floor with a great view along the main street.

Cons:

Breakfast was a little disappointing, had the cooked breakfast, which was okay, but seemed to be very cheap ingredients used for the sausage, black pudding, bacon, etc. Would be better to have local butcher meat, or slightly more expensive products used. The 3 grilled cherry tomatoes were very good, so was happy with those!

Good cosy stay.
Pros:

The rooms were good. Staff were good. But they seemed too be working in the bar more than anywhere else. Which is understandable given the location. Staff were helpfull aswell.

Cons:

Location if you dont drive. Also didnt like that we had no signs too hang outside our doors when cleaners came in. That was a bit anoying. It was also a bit loud when the bars full down stairs. The room i was staying in was very loud. You could hear people talking outside untill very late. But youd expect that. Given theres a bar down below.
