Over night stay

On a positive note the staff were lovely, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was freshly cooked and good quality, the bed comfortable and the bedding spotless. However the whole place inside and out, including the bedrooms and public areas, needs a massive refurbishment. The peeling paint on the front of the building is not a good first impression. Neither is the hole in the wall on the bedroom corridor. In my room, the television didn’t work, the fan was ineffective, the bedside cabinet stained and there was mould in the shower. Considering how much I paid, I expected more. My stay was definitely over priced and disappointing.

Short stay

I don't know what the website says about The George Inn, but I wasn't prepared for the number of steps to my room, 33 in total I think.OK for younger man but I'm in my mid eighties; a word of warning wouldn't go amiss. The room was clean and comfortable, the TV didn't work properly though and the plumbing was noisy. The staff were polite and helpful.
