The Dragon
Pros:

It was a nice place with the pub downstairs. It felt like home for a few days.

Cons:

The bed was not comfortable and the amount of hot water from the shower was not sufficient.

Pros:

Location and the pub is also nice.

Cons:

The stairs to the rooms are a challenge. If you are old, forget it. The fridge when not plugged in should be left open, so that mould does not occur (room 5). We only had one half of a loo roll and it's a bit embarrassing asking staff behind the bar for more loo rolls when people are sitting drinking. This is very basic housekeeping and hygiene.

Lovely place to stay. We were doing part of the King Alfred Way and the place was perfect.
Pros:

Ideal single beds for three blokes. Room was clean and beds comfortable. There as room in the pub to store our bikes. The host was very welcoming and accommodating. Great beer in the pub.

Cons:

Shower direction poor.

Pros:

Nice old building with lots of character. Plenty of towels, shampoo and shower gel.

Cons:

Beds were a bit hard and the shower was incredibly temperamental! My adult son couldn't get it to run hot at all! Shame as otherwise it was fine.

a welcome trip down Marlborough memory lane for us and a convenient stop over after Gifford Circus
Pros:

great location and comfy room equipped with a much needed fan. Good beer on tap and take-aways welcomed to be consumed on the premises whilst the kitchen was out of order.

Cons:

unfortunately the keycode front door lock didn't work for us or the other guest who kindly let us back in after breakfast on sunday morning!

Only stayed for one night but was very comfortable and would stay again
Pros:

We only stayed for one night but the location was excellent. Staff very friendly and the room was clean and comfortable with tea and coffee and our room even had a small fridge.
You do have to duck your head on the steep stairs to the top floor room and the floors have got quite a slope on them because it’s such an old building but this all adds to the charm

Hangulatos, kellemes.
Pros:

Központi helyen van, jó kommunikáció a személyzettel. Gyors ki és bejelentkezés. Van hűtő. A bekészítés jól esett. (víz,nescafé, tea) Hanglatos szoba, nagy fürdőszobával. Lépcsőzni kell, akit zavar, ne ott szálljon meg!

Cons:

Fizetős a parkolás. A vízforraló vízköves, le kéne cserélni. Nincs akasztó, kevés a pakolási lehetőség. Nem lehet kinyitni a szobában az ablakot…
