"Adequate, reasonably priced and conveniently situated."
For one the room was ok but the matress was covered in a material with lumps on. The bathroom needs a towel rail, a sanitary bin amd a toilet roll holder. I was unable to hang up my clothes as the hook was too high. Room needs some ventilation. TV remote needs a cover for the btteries and the shower needs attention as a bit fell off. I left at 7.10 so breakfast was not available but I asked for a cereal bar. Read less
Likes: The accommodation was close to where I was going the next day and was reasonably priced. Happy to have WiFi. as had work to do. Lady behind the bar was friendly. The coffee and kettle was useful.
Dislikes: The location of the carpark is not in the postcode given for the pub. It was full until the pub closed. Not helful for visitors. Lack of ventilation in room.
