Needs major repairs, not suitable for overnight accomodation.
Pros:

Only the location

Cons:

No running water in sinks - neither communual kitchen room nor ones in bedrooms..! so boxed drinkng water supplied, but unable to wash any cutlery etc. Pigeon infestion - ceilings and balcony (feathers and bird pooh along edges of the room at closed balcony doors). Resulted in pigeon/ bird mite bites, very uncomfortable and needed medication - antihistamines and topical sreroids. Toilet cistern in male communial bathroom not functioning, so a fellow travellor had to use female toilets.
Very run-down. Pub itself seems fine but not a place to stay.

Pros:

Comfortable bed, had dinner meal in same hotel.
RC window heater was great!

Cons:

Basic room, no kettle , no TV, the basin was in room , but no running water, so not usable.
Same floor has a communal lounge with kettle, microwave, same basin with no running water, but had bulk water on table to dispense out of.
Had couches, would have been useful,if it had a TV.

Staff seem to be doing the best they can with the building they've got.
Pros:

Staff had cleaned room and bathroom to what was absolutely possible given the overall age and poor condition of the building.

Cons:

Mould evident all over the place (not daily mould build up but damp related - black mould on ceilings etc), pigeons all through the roof keeping me awake, sink/taps not working in room, and broken lock on door, but seems its more the building itself thats the problem and in need of serious repair.

Comfortable stay but challenging coordinating access on a closed day.

Pros:

Friendly bar staff, good location. Room was clean, beds made.

Cons:

Should make it really clear on the website that it only has communal toilets and showers. The place has a real pigeon problem.
