Great pub for a short stay
Pros:

Nice room above the bar and restaurant. Despite this our room was quiet and we got a great nights sleep. Bed was extremely comfortable and the room had good facilities with bar fridge, cooking facilities (electric stove) and the usual tea and coffee making facilities. The bedroom was separate to the lounge and the ensuite was well stocked with shampoo, conditioner and soap. Washing machine and dryer were also available in the ensuite. Undercover parking was also good.

Cons:

Not much to dislike. Location is probably its biggest drawback as it is a bit out of town but with a car there was no issue.

Pros:

Location was excellent. Staff were helpful. I liked having a little kitchenette but the fridge was very small.

Cons:

It was pretty small for three of us. And the TV kept turning on in the middle of the night, but we couldn't get it to work when we wanted to watch it!

My stay was great, everything I expected.
Pros:

Loved the privacy of not hearing neighbors walking and talking at any given time. Also the distance to stores and restaurants is so good!

Can't wait to come back. :)
Pros:

How big the suite was. Plenty of space for the kids to run around in. We all loved how soft the carpet was.

Cons:

The shower. Missed having a hand held shower head for proper rinsing off.
