Clean and excellent value for money
Pros:

The room was basic but clean and the bed was comfortable. There was a large fan in the room which was great considering how hot it was.
The welcome was really friendly and couldn't have been better. The customers in the pub were also very nice and welcoming
We expected there to be quite a lot of noise from the pub below as we were on the first floor and the pub was full of people watching the football but actually there was only a little bit
For the price, it was an very good price and value for money and we would definitely stay here again if we were in the area just needed somewhere to lay our heads rather that a luxury couples night away

Cons:

The only actual negative was that we had booked a room that said that there was a fridge and there wasn't but I suspect that this was a Booking.com thing, not the fault of the Black Swan staff.
Someone in the room above sound like they were doing a clog dance at 2am but it was during the World Cup so we'll not hold that against them
