A pretty average classic hotel

Parking can be a challenge at busy times. I didn’t expect much due to room cost, so i wasn't surprised when i turned up to what appeared to be a 1980's style themed hotel. No lift, so i can imagine people with mobility issues could have a problem staying here. My room was on the top floor. Decor was very dated. Bed quite hard, pillows were too soft. Wall lamps had dust and cobwebs hanging from them. Toilet seat was loose and slipped to side when seated sometimes. Lighting levels seemed very low in bathroom. Wardrobe had ample space and tea/coffee making facility was a bonus. Breakfast options were adequate and reasonable service

Tired property. Bedroom was sad with a shockingly stained mattress and pillows. I slept on top of the duvet which had a clean sheet. Bathroom clean and functional but very small. Lots of cheap places to eat in walking distance.

The Borough Arms was fine for a stop-over place as we drove the length of England. The room was adequate and clean, but the walls were thin and decor/accessories decidedly dated. The doors to the rooms which open to the parking lot do not automatically lock so you have to make sure you lock the door after you enter (to prevent someone mistakenly walking into your room rather than there's as happened to us) and when you leave. The keys are attached to a large panel of wood which does not easily fit in pockets or small bags.
