Rustig verblijf in een mooi hotel
Pros:

De locatie is gunstig als je the Hadrian's Wall Path wandelt. Mooi en goed gerenoveerd hotel. De host is enthausiast en relaxed.

Cons:

De douche blijft niet op constante temperatuur. Als iemand anders in het hotel warm water gebruikt, heb je een koude douche.

Convenient
Pros:

The hotel is conveniently placed along the Hadrian's Wall path. The room was spacious and had everything you needed, we especially appreciated the cookies and water provided after a long hike. The dinner options were varied and the Indian food was delicious.

Cons:

It was our second stay at this place and we could feel the difference in the ownership. While the previous owners lived and breathed being a dog-friendly place, the new tenants clearly tried but seemed more reserved. Compared to our previous stay, the breakfast experience was slightly disappointing.

Ok voor een nacht, voor de duurste kamer geboekt op Hadrian's Wall hadden we meer en beter verwacht.
Pros:

Dit hotel ligt op 400 meter van Hadrian's Wall. Het hotel is groot en er zijn restaurantfaciliteiten; er is een café aan de overkant en het is gecombineerd met een hostel aan de overkant.
Het hotel is zeer recentelijk overgenomen.

Cons:

Het was op onze trip de duurste accommodatie. Hoewel de kamers groot en ruim waren miste het charme en een authentieke feel, de uitstraling kwam niet overeen met de verwachtingen.
De kamers waren eveneens koud, de donsdekens waren niet dik genoeg. Het personeel wist ons wel nog een extra donsdeken voor 1 persoon klaar te zetten wat het probleem deels oploste.
Ik denk dat er een extra last mile moet gebeuren voor de klant om deze prijs te rechtvaardigen.
(geen drank serveren met een vuil glas, een extra deken voorzien in de kast voor klanten die het koud kunnen hebben, voorzien van een medische kit met ontsmettingsvloeistof of ontsmettingswipes)

Cons:

Alll seemed a bit grubby. Breakfast was pretty minimal. Everything seemed like cost cutting going on. Staff were a bit casual and not overly helpful. Room looked good in pictures but needed more TLC.

Restful stay
Pros:

The room was spacious and bed comfy. Very quiet place. Only choice to eat was at the hotel in the evening. Really wonderfully cooked fish and chips .Cooked breakfast excellent and very good poached eggs. Liked the homemade granola and the spreads great. Very attentive staff

Cons:

I thought the prices for food were a little steep as there was also a service charge added on top which was cheeky.
