Rooms are outdated
We had a twin room the single bed was savagely uncomfortable

Look like it needed a revamp from about 10 years ago
Unfortunately, One won’t be returning to this particular hotel

Fine but not for wheelchair users.
Pros:

Good clean rooms and friendly and helpful staff.

Cons:

The lift is much too small I could not get my wife in her wheelchair into the lift without taking her out of the chair and collapsing it to storage mode. The superior rooms were not on the ground floor (I asked)
There is not enough storage space for clothes- no drawers. I would rather have a set of drawers rather than the fridge. Fine for an overnight stay but we were staying Mon to Sat.

Leider nicht das war wir erwartet haben.
Pros:

Die Größe des Zimmers, das Kingsize Bett war sehr bequem.
Das Personal war sehr freundlich.
Es waren genug Parkplätze vorhanden und vor allem kostenlos.
Das Frühstück war ausreichend und gut.

Cons:

Leider ist das Hotel, besonders die Zimmer sehr in die Jahre gekommen.
Das Zimmer und Bad waren zwar sauber aber es war überall zusehen, dass es dringend mal eine Renovierung benötigt.

Noisy and in need of an update
Pros:

Breakfast was nice

Cons:

Beds uncomfortable. Noise all night from vent and pipes. Can hear traffic as on busy road. Room tired and not very clean. Hotel is separate from the pub and could do with updating and paint refreshed
