Abhaken & never return again
Pros:

Gemütlicher Pub, gutes Essen im Restaurant am abend der Ankunft, Personal gab sich Mühe

Cons:

War das erste& letzte Mal das ich dort gebucht habe ( Buchung Sa-So).
Sich im Zimmer ( EG neben der Küche) aufzuhalten / zu schlafen war sehr mühsam wg dauerhaftem Benzingeruch der überall im Zimmer war. Bad bestand aus gestrichenem Betonboden mit Ablauf / Duschvorhang& WC. Geruch dito.
Buchung war incl Frühstück, somit war Frühstücksbestellung ab Karte ( mit sehr ansprechender Auswahl) nicht möglich, Auswahl extrem reduziert mit "entweder- oder".
Hatte mich dann für Fruit&Cheese- Selection & Kaffee entschieden - hätte ich mir sparen können.
5 Erdbeeren, 6 Heidelbeeren, 2Löffel Frischkäse & 1 Scheibe Camembert. Ahja, noch 6-7 kl Cracker, die hab ich dann liegen lassen.
Never ever in my life...

Pros:

The staff were fantastic they were very helpful and the renovation in the bar was spot on. I will be back can't wait to see the new bedrooms. The breakfast was marvellous,there was only 2 choices on the menu but they cooked anything we asked for .

Cons:

To be honest the only thing we missed was a bedside cabinet.

not great , needs a lot of work
Pros:

breakfast was nice, bar staff were friendly

Cons:

the place was run down and like somehting out of the 1970s. There was no WIFI !, this was blamed on renovations. The bathroom floor was akin to a wet room, with plaster coming off the walls and windows that didn't close proper;ly. It would have been nice to have been informed the hotel area was being done up prior to booking. It was very disappointing.

Decent place and excellent staff, just needs the hotel renovating
Pros:

Location was excellent, the refurbished bar and restaurant were very good. Bed linen and towels spotless and beds comfortable.
Staff were friendly and helpful with everything and resolved an issue we had in a very generous manner, which was much appreciated.
I appreciate that the hotel side of the business is in the planning stages of updating however somethings do need attention until this project is completed.
This said the restaurant and bar and the food served was first class and we would return again once the bedrooms have been sorted. Hurry up and sort please.

Cons:

Bedroom and bathroom was dated and bath edges were mouldy, loose tap on washbasin., fixtures and lights in bedroom very dated.
No bottles of water in bedroom.
Resident breakfast menu disappointing especially as other people coming in for breakfast had a large choice of items, ( a surcharge could be applied to more items )
Which we wouldn’t have had an issue pay for.

Must do better
Pros:

It has potential, it's in a quiet location with plenty parking available

Cons:

It's not often I give a negative reviews, My stay was overpriced for what I got, shower was tepid at most, sink hot tap also, toilet wasn't flushing properly, one of the blinds was damaged, guest breakfast menu couldn't be found, had to ask for juice and toast, coffee comprised of a few cappuccinos in a pot. Dinner the night before was nothing special, ordered their Burger with fries, same, fries were overdone, my overall experience was not great, three stars at best,

Very basic rooms
Pros:

The food in the bar was beautiful and the staff were very friendly.

Cons:

The rooms were very basic, in need if a male over, the bath mat in the bath was badly stained and there was no hot water in the sink. Breakfast was OK, but limited choice only offered sausages bacon and eggs with toast, no beans etc. Yet when people came in after 10am they got beans, soda etc.
