Comfortable stay with lovely staff!
Pros:

Staff were extremely friendly. Food was great - I had the in house breakfast but also had dinner one night downstairs. Room was cosy, clean, nicely decorated. Worked perfectly as I was attending a course nearby.

Cons:

Bathroom was a little less nice, but I think goes with the age of the building.

It was really disappointing. Felt like a lot of money for a pretty grim room.
Pros:

Really comfy bed, and friendly staff.

Cons:

Staff tried to be really helpful, but if I'd known before the morning that breakfast was going to be in the deli across the road I would have made different plans. (The deli was great by the way.) The room felt dirty, needed a good clean and probably a new carpet. Light bulbs missing.

Pros:

Right nice place to stay! Very old pub with rooms, quaint, and the food was all excellent! Ita not a luxury place, I’d give it an 8.4 overall, but the price was right and we loved it.

Lovely hotel. Lovely staff. Great value. Would/will stay again.
Pros:

The situation and the super helpful staff. Great breakfasts.

Cons:

There was no dinner service for all three nights we were there. The chef was sick. Real shame but a problem that couldn’t be sorted.

Comfortable but noisy room - poor breakfast.
Pros:

Room was comfortable, clean and spacious, although the bathroom was rather cramped.

Cons:

The breakfast was very disappointing - none of the usual cereals, pastries, juices, fruit or toast provided. Particularly disappointing given the quite high price for a room above a pub.
As expected, there was noise from inside and outside the pub until after 11.30 p.m. Should have double glazed windows to reduce the inevitable noise.
