OK stay at The Chequers
Pros:

Conveniently located when visiting Bourne End/Cookham and surrounding areas. Staff were friendly and helpful. Quiet location.

Cons:

Room was a little dated. Could do with new bed linens/towels. Bathroom mirror was so high on the wall it was difficult to use. Toilet holder loose on the wall.

Disappointing considering the money spent. Ok for a passing by stay
Pros:

Location was lovely and quiet, attached pub was very nice and the breakfast was lovely

Cons:

Staff were quite unfriendly and unwelcoming. Dirty laundry on the floors of the communal areas, lots of dirty cups and things just around. Paid for early check in at 12 but room was still dirty and not ready until 1.20pm - no offer even of a drink or anything whilst we sat outside on a bench to wait
