Understand it has recently changed hands, but cleanliness should never be an issue
Pros:

Was not aware of change of ownership, but Indian menu looked inviting.

Cons:

Sadly whilst bedroom was clean, bathroom was poor, unemptied bin, no toiletries and looked as though it had not been cleaned since last guest. Also no hairdryer available.

dissapointing unclean
Pros:

the location was near where i needed to be for an event i was attending

Cons:

the dirt
had to ask the owner if they had a hoover Bits all over the carpet. toilet was uncleaned yellow urine stain on underside of toilet seat and poop skid in the toilet bowl
dried tooth paste spits in the wash basin and the shower was filthy with a used scrunchy hanging on the controls
used cup and spoon by the kettle
dust on skirting boards and when i moved the bedside cabinet there was a soap and lots of white things not sure if animal eggs or grains of rice
I asked if there was another room
the owner showed me 2 more rooms again none of a very good standard of cleanliness
i chose the 2nd of these options
i had to clean the wash basin before i could use it and when i went to put the cloth in the toilet bin
there was a nappy or similar in the bin Clearly this had not been emptied from the last visitors
The owner kept said he only took over 2 weeks ago he must have known what customers would be staying and could have made more effort to make sure rooms were clean
and i was charged at the property £10 for my dog
a disappointing standard of cleanliness as i've stayed here before and it was lovely

Needs vast improvements.
Pros:

The beer. Landlord tried his best as he’d only just took over the running of the place.

Cons:

No restaurant or breakfast. No hot water. Very little ventilation in the room. No blackout lining to curtains so at 4am it was as light as day. Drains smelt. Toilet wasn’t cleaned. Cost £72!!!

Needs a lot of maintenance
Pros:

A member of the staff was very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

Our family room was not ready, so we stayed in separate rooms. The rooms were very dirty and there were more issues, no hot water, this place requires a lot of maintenance. Not sure how they are on booking.com, I'm shocked and
Very disappointed with the experience.

Clean and tidy accommodation and the hosts were very friendly and polite.
Pros:

The hosts welcomed us on arrival, they were very friendly and polite and helped us to move our luggage to our room. The room was very clean and tidy. Parking was no problem. The other staff were also very friendly and polite.

Cons:

We were disappointed that there was no food available for guests. We had to go to another local pub for food (which was excellent). The shower was not good, only a trickle of water was produced even though it was a power shower. The noise from the bar disturbed our sleep, very noisy clientele and music. At about 3am, there was an almighty row between guests in an adjoining room which woke us (not the hosts fault, but still disappointing).
