Geen aanrader
Pros:

De ligging t.o.v. centrum en de pub.

Cons:

De kamer. Was gelegen aan achterzijde van de pub. Geen doorschijnend glas en een warmtepomp die ‘s nachts vaak aansloeg. Heel luidruchtig. Douchecabine in de kamer en toilet op de gang. Had al eerder 2x via e-mail gevraagd voor een kamer met badkamer en toilet. Nooit reactie gehad. Bij aankomst nogmaals gevraagd om upgrade. Was wel een kamer beschikbaar, maar kon deze niet krijgen omdat het via Booking was gereserveerd. Gevalletje computer says no. Heel slecht.
Pub was verder prima

Served a purpose.
Pros:

Location, price

Cons:

You can see it was a lovely place when it was created. Rooms just need a fresh coat if emulsion. Even the wallpaper is good and the layout great. Shame really, it just looks tired. My room has the shower water pressure of a dripping tap. Could be made better very easily and cheaply.

My stay was acceptable and the pub was friendly.
Pros:

I was disappointed that we had to share a toilet. Overall, the room was clean but I didn’t like the shower in the corner of the room. Pub was lovely and staff were helpful.
