Cheap little place to stay. Great for the price as we just needed somewhere to sleep. Staff was polite and friendly. Our room was in the annex so no noise from the pub. My only complaint was they only had 1 twin room which was on the top floor and I struggle with mobility and stairs.

This hotel ticked all the boxes. It was a really good price in the location we were looking for. Hotel / Bar staff were amazing. The food smelt amazing although did not spend enough time at the hotel to try this. Rooms were tired and maintenance was questionable but for us, we were happy that really we had got what we paid for. Would definitely stay again if need a hotel in the area. Room had everything you needed including iron and ironing board

The staff were great and the Indian cuisine was amazing! The first room they showed us was in bad shape - broken doorknob, broken cabinet, no water pressure. They switched us to another room that was just fine and were nice about it. They’re going to renovate and repair all the hotel rooms this summer - when they’re all fixed this will be a great place to stay. Despite the hiccup we really enjoyed the Red Lion Inn.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room and bedding was clean. Floorboards sagging in places. Windows need attention. However its fine for just a night's stay. You get what you pay for. My only issue is with their accounting - upon returning home I found my card was charged 2 days before arrival at the hotel which is fine however the hotel then took 2 payments from me (for two rooms). No doubt this will be sorted but it is irritating, time wasting having to get back to them on this.

The room looked clean at first glance but it was unhygienic - stains on the bedsheets, blanket and in the bathroom. They forgot to provide a fan and it was really hot in the room as well. Not the best room for summers.
