Comfortable Room, friendly staff and great pub restaurant
Pros:

The hotel had character, with a great bar and restaurant, and our room was comfortable and very clean. I thought it was exceptional value, with a lovely atmosphere and would stay again if heading North and needed to stop just off the M1!

Cons:

Not much really, the bathroom wasn't the most modern, but for the price point, I wouldn't expect it to be.
