Lovely Maldon trip.

Had an over-nighter with my old man. Comfy room, aircon, lovely view over the river... Delicious breakfast the following morning. Parking can be a bit iffy, but we found a space nearby... better from October, when all the regulations ease. The bar was well stocked and we had massive dinners! Plenty of shops a short walk away.

ROD

Liked: Staff & service
When we arrived the staff were welcoming and friendly although booking in system a bit chaotic and we did not receive all information about servicing rooms on daily basis. Ran out of towels, clean crockery, coffees and no hand wash in bathrooms. Bathrooms not very clean and floors decidedly grubby. A real shame as perfect location and very nice staff, maybe management issue! Rod and Sue

Two nights away.

Staying here was good. Location was fine. The room was functional and clean. Shower was not great lack power. Air conditioning was very useful but I did find the slight damp smell after use. Parking is an issue as no onsite parking, you can park outside the other pub down the road. Otherwise you have to park after 7pm on the roadside and move before 9am. You need to be able to climb steep stairs and be aware of low ceiling heights. But overall a pleasant stay.
