Poor
Location wise was exactly where i wanted + Check In Time Slot + Decent Newish Ensuite. But Thats Literally All Thats Good To Say!
TV Wasnt Working (told staff nothing done!) Cold Drafty Noisey Window That Wouldnt Close Properly + No radiator/heating so was very cold. Hard Uncomfy Tired Old Single Bed With No Headboard (just worn away wallpaper!!) Paper thin Walls Had Next Doors TV blasting through the wall All Night + Staff Let Other Guests Be As Noisey As They Want Slamming Doors/Shouting Etc (Hen/Birthday Party + Next Door As Mentioned) Needless to say Not Happy One Bit As I mentioned All This To The Lad Takeing The bookings Etc in 1 ear + Out the other!! I stayed in the single bed Ensuite room (NO PICS ON SITE) ill add some on review so you no in advance what your getting as dont expect anything fixed or helped once your there and they have your money. Put me off staying again which is unforunate.

Everything was clean, and the people working there were nice and friendly.
The shower was broken and the water was coming from the side, but it was repaired a few hours later, when we came back.

This place is amazing. It’s in a quiet location which is close to transport, food and alcohol if you want to go for a drink. The room was gorgeous and clean and the bed was comfortable, there’s also plenty of tv channels if you just want to relax for a bit after a busy day. The staff were welcoming, approachable and let us know if anything was needed to just let them know. It was just myself and my daughter she thought it was a beautiful place to stay and made sure to let me know that she wants to stay again. Thank you for making our stay wonderful.

The owner and her son was absolutely lovely. Even moved their car so we could park ours. Repeatedly as we was in and out.
The bed was uncomfortable and there was no breakfast and no bar. Although the owner Christine is now having to care for her husband as he’s had a major stroke. Absolutely heartbreaking
