The Queen's head is not a quiet option in a market town - Guests need to be aware before booking.
Pros:

Room was cost effective

Cons:

Room was cold, with a small electric heater that struggled to keep up. Security of the room was dubious, as there was just a code lock which was loose, and no means of securing the door from within. There was no barrier to people either in the pub, or in the sports bar from wandering up into the rooms area. Biggest issue is that the room (in fact all of them) are on top of a Nightclub/Disco, where the noise levels in the room were so loud, it was impossible for us to get to sleep, even with earplugs in. This lasted to 4 AM, but when the music stopped, noisy, drunken shouting and arguing persisted at the front of the building until gone 5AM.

We didn't stay, handed key code back and walked out!
Pros:

Absolutely nothing! We were initially given a door code for a room that on entering someone was already in there so another room was allocated and it was shocking, dirty, ripped curtains, music was belting out and were told it would be until early hours, totally disgusting. Siukd be called a Hostel not a Hotel!

Cons:

Everything

Better than expected
Pros:

After reading reviews we were unsure what to expect, but the room was better than expected. Clean and comfortable.

Cons:

You need a code to get into the room and it's not the easiest to get in to.

Awful.
Pros:

The bar downstairs.

Cons:

Everything else. It was totally filthy, pubic hair in shower, coffee stains all over the sink, red wine stain in the bed. The bathroom wall appeared to have been taped together at the top. Window missing in the fire door on the top floor (big safety risk), and a foul small in all of the corridors. All in all, it was nothing short of a pit.

Basic dated room
Pros:

Central. Reasonable price and clean bedding. Helpful Staff. Old building with character. En-suite . Spacious room with TV

Cons:

No cups/glass for water. Thin curtains so very light. No mattress or pillow protectors and odd fabric bedding. A spring in bed noisy. Hairs in sink and black marks in toilet bowl. Headboard bangs. No double glazing so traffic noise. Only standard 4”6 bed so smaller than most. No chair
