Pros:

Hôtel un peu vieillot mais, le lit était bon, la salle de bain avec baignoire, excellente après une grosse journée de vélo et le petit déjeuner délicieux et servi par une personne très agréable. Qu'importe quelques fissures au plafond. Abri pour vélo. Hôtel très calme

Cons:

Rien en fait

Very good location and great staff. Breakfast was also good. Would recommend for a short stay in dulverton.
Pros:

Great location to stay in dulverton.
Rooms were clean and comfortable.
Staff welcoming and helpful.

Cons:

Decor is very tired and a bit worn. Bath shower was clean but toilet didn’t flush very well and probably needs replacing.
Floors and walls a bit old and could do with updating. Windows look out onto the high Street so could do with net curtains. One window didn’t open which was needed in the summer. A fan for summer would have been welcome.

Passar bra för en övernattning vid genomfart.
Pros:

Trevlig personal

Cons:

Tyvärr heltäckningsmatta som gör att det inte luktar så gott. Väldigt mjuk madrass.
