Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The hotel consists of rooms above the pub. I had a self check in at rear of pub - the entry is very old and shabby. To be fair the lady I spoke to on the phone advised that the property is undergoing new ownership so perhaps renovation/refubishment plans are in the pipeline. She was friendly and helpful. The room itself was very old fashioned, the en suite was 60's/70's mustard coloured with an old fashioned electric heater on the wall which was a blast from the past. HOWEVER, the room and ensuite were clean and I felt a great effort had been made to ensure the bed looked clean and comfortable. The carpet felt slightly "sticky"underfoot which was slightly off-putting. However it was a clean room and bed and was relatively good value - I simply needed a bed for a night so it served its purpose.

Lovely old building but sadly run down, 1980s decor and facilities and no food service of any kind. But bed was comfortable and TV worked well. Price was very low though so represents good value for money for a basic overnight stay.

Contacted the property arranged a late check in. Paid for the room directly with the hotel. Hotel gave me instructions how to enter the property. I arrived 10pm, hotel had not respected what was agreed. I could not enter hotel, and it was impossible to contact anyone. Basically I have paid and received nothing in return.

I was booked in for 2 nights but didn't return for the 2nd night. Where do I start? I literally had to use the torch on my phone to find the room and dodge beams on the way. Parking was scarce and I had to park on double yellows for the night. Exit in the morning was through the fire escape which was wide open all night. No shower in my room but didn't dare look at the shared shower given the run down state of the whole place. Will be looking for a refund.

Was dark when we arrived. Rooms were very outdated. Bathroom was filthy. Didn’t even attempt a shower. No facilities for food. Propert didn’t have set close time so was already closed when we returned to our room in the evening. Struggled to find the rear entrance, luckily another couple showed us how to get in. Even just for one night I spent the day looking for somewhere else to stay. Met one member of staff. He was very friendly and helpful can’t fault his customer service. Just a shame no staff on sight all night and that the rooms are so dirty and outdated.

Dark, dingy, depressing, dangerous.

Oh dear. Read the reviews, thought, surely its fine for one night. Avoid, honestly, it wont be worth half of what you are paying. So many red flags on this place but the biggest for me...when we checked it in was daytime, got the key and headed to the room which took you through a dark reception room and through unlit corridors, I just thought they are saving money as daytime....no....if you get back after the pub closes, all the lights are off. I mean all of them. As in you are walking though the corridors of this very old hotel in PITCH black. The room is extremely dated. I'd guess from the 70's-80's, and not in a cute kitch way. In a time when people are worried about beg bugs in Paris, I was more worried about the plague still infesting what honestly looked like could be original 15th century carpets. Last thing...honestly there are so many things but theres only so many characters. The back door to the hotel (which was on our floor), was just open all night, it doesnt even look like it has a functioning lock anymore.
