Wonderful, would highly recommend
Pros:

Location was great, near the river and easy to walk into the centre. The room was lovely and clean, nicely presented with a view of the river out the window.
The pub itself was fantastic, welcomed by lovely staff and served the perfect guiness!

Also easy to get to from the airport, the bus drops you right over the road.

Cons:

The bathroom did have a slight drain smell but I’d noticed this in a few places we went in, maybe just because it is so close to the river. It didn’t affect our stay just keep the bathroom door closed!

Buena situación, servicios limitados
Pros:

No se oye ruido del pub.
Personal: Lisa nos atendió muy bien y pudimos entrar a dejar las maletas antes de hora.
La atención del personal excelente.
La situación es muy buena

Cons:

Habitación oferta booking: precio alto para dotación.
No hay ascensor.
Tamaño justito alrededor de la cama. Habitación interior da a un patio interior con una enorme tubería de extracción de aire que hace ruido.

No hay aire acondicionado por lo que hay que abrirla si quieres respirar un poco de aire.
No hay neverita

por 28 Eu más en el Clayton a la vuelta de la esquina, tuvimos una habitación el doble de grande con mucha luz.

Con encanto pero ruidoso
Pros:

Buena zona, algo lejos del bullicio de la ciudad. La ducha con bastante presión. Te dan toallas limpias todos los dias. Pero sin duda lo mejor es el pub que está abajo!!!!

Cons:

La cama era "corta" se te salen los pies por debajo....bastante ruidoso, pero ya lo habíamos leído en comentarios. Esta habitacion daba a un lateral y habia menos ruido que en otras.

Un buen sitio pero ruidoso
Pros:

De las 2 habitaciones que probamos, la que tiene vistas al río es más grande y con buenas vistas. Toallas limpias todos los días, y bastante presion de agua en la ducha. Pero sin duda, lo mejor es el pub que esta debajo.

Cons:

Demasiado ruidoso, ya habíamos leído los comentarios pero no imaginamos que sería tan excesivo, y si cierras la ventana esta bien pero pasas calor.....

Very good, would stay again, little noisy at night as over a pub but not as bad as we thought it would be. Great value
Pros:

Comfortable and good location, handy for both arena and city centre

Cons:

Stayed two nights, didn’t expect room to be cleaned (and it wasn’t) but someone came in room as towels had been put back in towel rail but bed not made, dirty tea cups were left on side and bins were not emptied…..so not sure in the point of this was. Would have been good to have clean cups for next morning.

Tolle Unterkunft mit sehr guter Lage. Das Zimmer war geräumig und die Betten waren sehr bequem. Insgesamt ein angenehmer Aufenthalt.

Guter und angenehmer Aufenthalt
Pros:

Das Bett war sehr bequem. Das Zimmer hatte eine angenehme Größe. Die Lage war zwar etwas außerhalb aber man hatte super Busanbindungen bzw war man in ca 20 Minuten zu Fuß in der City.
Das Bier und Cider waren klasse, das Personal war freundlich und schnell bei der Bedienung.

Cons:

Das Bett war etwas wackelig.
Wir hatten ein Zimmer nach hinten raus und man hörte die Lüftung.
Im Zimmer gab es Teppichböden.

Lite, moderne rom i gammel bygning. Veldig kult!
Pros:

Elsket at den var opp på en pub! Vi hørte absolutt ingen støy fra puben på kveldstid mens vi var der☺️
Hyggelig personale og en litt annerledes måte å bo på. Det var litt trangt å komme seg opp til rommene, men det er jo en del av sjarmen med bygningen osv.
Jeg er kjempefornøyd med oppholdet.

Cons:

Det var ekstremt varmt! Vi fikk rom med vindu ut til en «bakgård» som var omringet av bygninger, slik at det var litt dårlig luftsirkulasjon og vinduet vi kunne åpne var litt lite. MEN, jeg spurte personalet i baren om jeg kunne få låne vifta de hadde der nede, når baren stengte. Det var ikke noe problem, den ble en game-changer!!🤩
Skulle jeg ønsket meg noe så hadde det vært noen helt enkle små kjøleskap på rommene, slik at gjestene har mulighet til å ha kald drikke og evt noe snacks. Da det ikke er frokostservering på overnattingsstedet.
Rommene er små, men det har sin sjarm, på vårt rom og venneparet vi hadde med oss, hadde det vært plass til et lite kjøleskap.
Og selvfølgelig: Ha en vifte tilgjengelig i varme perioder☺️
Men, storfornøyd alt i alt!!☺️☺️
