Staff were amazing. Louise was so very helpful. Quaint pub area with great seating options. Breakfast was a little pricey for the quality. Rooms were decent. Very plain. Shower was a little awkward with water splashing out constantly.

Ok

The place wasn't the best. The rooms were outdated and tacky, in need of some TLC. The staff were friendly and the food was very good so overall the stay was OK but I probably wouldn't come back as the room / decor and sleep was uncomfortable.

I’ll be brutally honest the staff are absolutely fantastic, but the property was extremely dated in rooms The walls need painting stains down the walls. Bathrooms are dated windowsills not clean. Beds need changing the whole place needs to refresh upstairs.

Communication was great as it took us a while to drive and we were worried we'd miss check in. Lad who checked us in was great! There is a slight smell as you head upstairs and continues into the room. Nothing offensive though. Clean bedding and towels and tea and coffee facilities. There were marks on the carpet and it was sticky in places. Bathroom was clean but mould starting to show on walls and ceiling. No shower gel left in dispenser but this was rectified when advised.

Unfortunately not too good, the food in the restaurant was really poor and the inside of the place dark and dismal and in need of refurbishment, carpets dirty. Oh and a smile would have gone down well.

Run down

Room 9. Right outside your bedroom window is the kitchen extract fan that is like a jumbo jet. I couldn’t open the window because of the noise or smell. Once the kitchen had finished it went off so I could then open my windows for fresh air. The room is dated and is desperately needed a paint job and the carpet needs changing.Its dusty in the room and the windows are filthy. The only positive is the shower is powerful. Shame there are no blinds or curtains in the bathroom. The corridor carpets again disgusting. The corridor light is hanging off the ceiling. The staff however seem friendly enough. Paying £335 for 4 nights is daylight robbery for what I got in return. I would never stay again it needs a full make over. It’s been a very long time since I stayed in a battered old hotel but you live and learn.

I understand we paid just 48 quid for a room, but to have black mold, tissue stuffed in window seal and carpet quite literally stopping the door from opening as it was ruined and pulled up was not acceptable. No toilet roll. Soap empty in bathroom and felt like it was a painted shell not a hotel room. Harsh but true. For maybe 10 or 15 more quid we could have had literal luxury compared to this at Blancos or Greenacres. We got moved to a different room that had bare walls. A bathroom bigger than most bedrooms with a 19 inch tv in the high corner of room and unfortunately this caused (im not exaggerating) echoes that can only be described as desperate lol. I know you get what you pay for. However we have got a lot more for very little extra money. Seriously this isnt a hotel. Its a few rooms above a pub. The rooms are terrible. Pub However is great. Seriously the pub and staff are great. Rooms are like a hostel.

Kevin and the team are great, happy to help however they can. The food is very good as are the drinks. The en suite bathroom had a great shower, fluffy clean towels and was nicely laid out. The bed was clean and comfortable. We stayed for two nights and both agreed the only thing to change were some of the carpets. We didn't sleep, eat or shower on the carpets though, so it wasn't a game changer. We would definitely stay again, thank you Kevin and the whole team.
