Very nice!
Pros:

Very friendly staff, nice bar and very nice breakfast. Only thing my girlfriend was missing (as a real Dutch girl) was cheese at breakfast 😃

Cons:

If you have a room at the street side there is much noise from people in the street who are at music bars and a discotheque in the street. We were in the hotel in the weekend, maybe on other days it will be more quiet.

Comfortable, cozy, and well equipped
Pros:

The rooms were well equipped with most every amenity, including safe, ironing board, TV. We did not eat there but the pub was warm and cozy.

Cons:

It was okay for just me, but had there been two of us the room would have been tight.

Not up to the expected standard
Pros:

The hotel was in a pedstrian area no access for a car. Had park off site in ASDA Car park ovwr night at a cost of £5.40 for 24 hrs. The room was small had to climb over the small double bed to get in and out of it.

Cons:

Being given the information about the hotel being in a pedestrian area and details of parking.

Great location and reasonably priced, but small and airless rooms
Pros:

Conveniently located in the centre of Rugby. Parking was reasonably priced and close by. Accommodation was reasonably priced. Staff were helpful.

Cons:

The room was smaller than expected. The bed was not a full sized double and with it being against the wall in a small room, it felt quite claustrophobic and airless. We had an issue with the sink - the plug got stuck so the water would not drain. We were offered another room, but we chose to stay in the same room given the amount of luggage we had with us.
