Lovely room and good food very friendly staff

More a hostel than a hotel Lets just say I wouldn’t stay here again. No where telling you where to go to check in to get your key. No real information provided - not even shown where the communal bathroom was so just had to work that one out. If you like dust, no idea what splattered up the walls and someone else's toe nails on the floor then this might be for you. Breakfast - lets just say you are left to it, not even greeted, asked for a room number or offered tea/coffee. No door handles so getting out of your room is a challenge in itself especially when you are carrying a child - you need both hands or 2 ft long fingers to turn the knob and pull the slit. Most awkward door ive ever seen in a hotel. Thank god my child didn’t need carrying when asleep or it wouldn’t have happened. No housekeeping, no bins emptied or anything. I then noticed other rooms just leaving the bin bags outside their bedroom doors. There is calling yourself value for money, and then being a hostel. If you want to sleep- bring an eye mask, the curtains may as well not have been up, paper thin and didn’t block out any light. Very noisy - not sure if it was guests, an event on or houses nearby, but noise constantly- music, revving cars, screaming.

My room was very clean, tea and coffee facilities and lovely clean towels , the shower was hot I only went to breakfast the once due work commitments but for a continental breakfast there was plenty , the coffee was delicious , no noise from the pub under the rooms would definitely return and recommend.

Convenient excellent value for money staff very friendly
