We had a shower that was scalding hot and flooded every time you used it . We told the bar staff to be told "everything is breaking here but will pass it on " . Nothing was done or even looked at. …

The positives: the room was spacious. And the showers were as good as we’ve had in any hotel. There was good parking on the street.The negatives: kitchen wasn’t open, which was a minor thing as there are other establishments nearby.However, the biggest issue is the volume of the bar’s music late into the evening. It was literally louder in our room than the bar itself due to no soundproofing and where the speakers are. If you stay up late then this is no problem, if you expect to get to sleep before 11 then this is not the place for you.

Was told the pub shuts at 12, but the music didn’t stop until around 3 am. Would be fine, if we were warned beforehand, and if we couldn’t hear everything through the floor. We paid for breakfast but were completely forgotten about, and when the manager saw us in the morning she quickly left before we could complain. Rooms were ok though.

The rooms were spacious, pleasant and good value. Unfortunately, I am still in dispute over having been charged twice and unable to contact anyone at the hotel about it. There's never a manager there; they just take a message and never get back. Poor management, which is a shame for a decent place. I wouldn't advise risking it.

Fantastic rooms having Benn working in the area for a number of weeks I managed to stay in a number of different rooms. All rooms are very comfortable, clean and inviting. The bar itself was also inviting with a good variety of drinks and a good price. If ever I'm in the area again I'll definitely be making a booking thanks Danielle for making us feel welcome..
