Séjour typique
Pros:

Hôtel typique dans un pub. Personnel sympathique et vraiment au calme bien que nous soyons dans un pub. Les chambres sont en retrait sur l'arrière. Bon petit déjeuner

Cons:

Dommage une des chambres ne sentait pas très bon. Des diffuseurs de parfum dans les couloirs.

A traditional inn, that is family owned. First class.
Pros:

They gave me a room at the back of the pub away from street noise.
They asked me when I came in, if I would like a table for dinner and for breakfast - it is nice to be reminded of these things, especially after a long day.
Food is excellent quality, and good to be offered traditional "meat and veg" rather than pasta and beef burgers.
Breakfast - wonderfully cooked and great variety.
Staff incredibly friendly.
I was well looked after from the moment I arrived

Cons:

I would have liked nescafe sachets in my room. I am not much good at working technical equipment, and the coffee machine was state of the arc, unlike me!
