Pleasant stay at this venue

A very pleasant place to stay. Our room was quite small, perhaps unsurprisingly for a venue in town, but clean and well appointed, with a separate toilet (and sink) and bathroom with shower and basin. Breakfast was fresh, well prepared and generous, and the staff were very accommodating. Would happily stay again if the occasion arose.

It's a cute place, and I loved the complimentary drinks. The room I occupied had a lot of charm, including the low door-frame when coming out of the toilet (and banging my head against it, despite being warned of it just moments beforehand).

Well worth its popularity!

Nice property! Not an abundance of seating in the bar area, but an excellent restaurant and friendly staff. Room was clean and well appointed. I like a hard bed, but it might have been a bit too much even for me. A really great stay overall!

Disappointing

I had to wait ages to check-in as the only member of staff was being engaged in conversation with couple also checking-in. It would have been nice to have been acknowledged. The room was so small that there was insufficient room for a bedside table. It was cramped and nowhere to work. The bed had a large and unnecessary bolster pillow but I couldn't move it as there was nowhere to put it. The bathroom was adequate but no very clean. Possibly the biggest irritation was a lack of a USB point which I would take for granted in any hotel. Fortunately, the battery on my phone lasted just long enough to recharge in the car. Some of the room decor was very tired. Plaster missing in the ceiling and a large hole between the window frame and the wall. The road outside is extremely noisy. Only on-street parking. Breakfast was very good although a little slow. Nice creamy well cooked and well seasoned scrambled eggs. This is the second time I've stayed at a hotel within the group: it will be the last.
