Value For Money
Pros:

The room decor was nice adequately stocked tea tray though a little biscuit would be a nice addition such as a biscoff. Items such as a fan iron and hairdryer provided too without charge.
The staff were polite. We had dinner one night which was nice and breakfast one morning which was great value for money at £10. This got you a continental breakfast as well as a cooked breakfast.
There was parking.

Cons:

The room we stayed in Room 1 was at the back of the hotel with fans or ventilation from the kitchen. So it was quite noisy until the kitchen shut. And there was a smell of cooking in the room constantly.
If we ever stayed again we would request a room at the front of the property.
There was parking for residents though it was difficult to park. Our car is large and wasnt easy to maneuver as the hotel sits on the main road so there is traffic constantly passing restricting maneuvering.
On a plus there is a public car park at the rear of the hotel which is relatively cheap to park.

Perfect! Spotlessly Clean, DH Lawrence Centre just 5 mins away, Mind-Blowing Breakfast! Great Value!
Pros:

The welcome was wonderful, with happy smiling faces and that was just mine! But seriously, What a find, What great value and what a fab place, Perfect for a one night stay or if your lucky enough, even longer! A super friendly, well managed and I was made so welcome, I felt like a local.. Traveling solo, I booked the single room with shower which was spotlessly clean & spacious enough to feel comfortable and at home in. If your visiting Eastwood for Mr DH Lawrence, Then you have the absolute perfect location at the Sun Inn with free parking as the DH Lawrence centre is a mere 5 mins flat walk away, ( in fact across the road! ) Perfect after the totally awesome breakfast choice of Cereals, Juices, Tea, Coffee and an amazing choice of Small, Medium & (see photo) The LARGE BREAKFAST !!! all while enjoying the news on the large TV screens available. All in all, it was a thoroughly enjoyable stay and one that i will really look forward to staying again in the future.

Cons:

Nothing.. It was great value and a wonderful experience

Great stay, at a place I once walked out of years ago, much improved and staff were spot on.
Pros:

The room was clean and bright, with a very comfortable bed. The shower en-suite was clean and the shower had great water pressure. My only comment would be that it was quite a big step up, but I managed it.
I did not have breakfast as I only eat a small bowl of cereal and £10 for a cooked breakfast and continental breakfast seemed a lot for my appetite. But it did look good and if you like a breakfast I would say go for it.
I did eat an evening meal of Steak and chips, which was very tasty.

Cons:

The shower curtain was not quite long enough and I had to be careful that the water did not splash out of the cubicle.
My room was next to the fire doors leading to the main stairs and it slammed very loudly several times and woke me.
