Pros:

As someone who moved to the UK 3 years ago, this was probably one of the coolest accommodations I've stayed in within the UK. The building is an old Tudor building with slanted floors and walls, which was very charming. We spent part of the evening downstairs in the pub and really enjoyed the atmosphere. This felt like great value, given the affordable price.
Location was great - short walking distance to the town centre.
There was parking available on site.
Overall, we had a lovely stay.

Nice Place to Overnight in Exeter
Pros:

White Hart is a pub/hotel located fairly close to the Exeter cathedral and an easy walk from the riverside nightlife area. The rooms are comfortable and clean and the Wi-Fi is good. I didn't have a car, but there is plenty of free parking at the hotel for those that do. I didn't see that much reason to go to Exeter, but if it's part of your travel plans, then White Hart is a good place to overnight.

I have already booked to stay again so obviously enjoy the hotel.
Pros:

Clean and the bed was very comfortable. Great location. I really like staying there.

Cons:

The reason why I didn’t score higher was the shower. Clean towels and enough toilet paper, but the shower was flunctuating between cold and piping hot without any middle ground for an enjoyable shower, regardless of adjusting the shower controls.
