Has potential
The food and the service was very good. The place itself could be amazing. The thing that let it down for us was the cleanliness. It felt like the whole place could do with a deep clean.

Don't choose this hotel
It is totally unacceptable, We pay £89 for one night, we are late check in about 10p.m. We found that there are many spider nets on the top of the room, white and big, just like a abandoned house just leave there for decades. We request change room, but there are only two and fully booked. Couldn't imagine who would like to sleep over night facing the spider net. And we ask the lady could we refund or refund half to us because we are decide to book another room cause my little daughter is scared to cry. She said we could apply online through hotels.com but she turn around refused to refund us by replying hotels.com, I don't know why the hotels.com only protecting their own interests. It is unreasonable and unacceptable paying £89 for living a room, like this one, it is my first time in my life go to a hotel room like this. Nerver book this hotel.

Staff were very friendly and accommodating and the Inn is in a great location, with generous, spacious rooms. The breakfast was delicious. Our stay would have been perfect if any care had been given to the standards of hygiene. Our room was covered in cobwebs, the shower drain covered in hairs, and the same with the bedsheets. It's a shame that it is not seen as important to not use pillow cases with mascara stains, or to carry out the basic task of vacuuming a rug, which was pretty disgusting. When I mentioned this to the staff, I was told that this was due to the hotel being 'dog friendly'. A very poor excuse for not maintaining basic standards of hygiene. Overall, a few basic steps would have really elevated our stay.
