The room was small, clean, and comfortable; the bathroom clean (but not completely spotless--a little mold in the shower grout wasn't really concerning). The staff I interacted with (including the owner) were not just polite but personable. And the breakfast offering was well above average. The pizza I had in the hotel restaurant, however, was mediocre, but the bartender/waiter was terrific--a master at both crafts.

No shopping nearby, hospital across the street. No elevator. Pub food wasn’t the best, fish and chips seemed to be thawed frozen fish and over cooked and hard. Morning breakfast was delicious. Plenty of seating in the room
