Disappointed due to no hot shower
Greeting was okay, I asked for my invoice to be emailed to me and at time of writing (over 24 hours after arrival) still not received. I was in room 3 on ground floor, bed was comfortable, desk to work at in room and en-suite was okay. Window in en-suite was open but too high up to be closed. In morning when I got in shower there was no hot water from shower. The sink had hot water. When I told staff on leaving about the lack of hot water from shower, he did not seem that interested or bothered. Lots of places in High Street to go and eat at. Will not stay here again.

You get what you pay for.
Room was clean and had space. However wall paper peeling off walls. Marks on walls and doors. Bed uncomfortable to sleep on. Bathroom very moist with condensation everywhere. Rooms noisy above and adjacent. Reception helpful and friendly. Dont eat at Green King pub better food available at a cheaper price next door in Wetherspoons.

A nice old-style inn with the loveliest staff
The welcome here is warm and genuine. The corridors are faded and in places smell a bit funny but the rooms are clean with lovely bedlinen, a proper wardrobe and two chairs- most hotels only provide one in standard rooms.. Bathroom was sparkling and spacious, but nowhere to put toiletries etc except on the sink or the tiny shelf below the mirror - not a big deal for one night, might get annoying for two or three. Good breakfast, large portions for cooked food. We were charged twice for the room but that may be a function of the app as the hotel only got one payment - they are looking into it for us. Once that's sorted out we will definitely stay there again.

Able bodied only
Not good for anyone with a disability, no ground floor rooms, no lift, too many steps up and down, even a high step up to the bathroom.
No other room available.

Good location but a tired hotel
Hotel is ideally located, quality and overall room condition is well below average standards. Shower regulater didn't work, although a late booking, the shower was larger than shower space the fixtures were dated, although some upgrading in some places ongoing. Breakfast was ok and the staff was helpful and friendly. The carpets are well used an tired

Perfect for a business trip.
Free car park but quite small and tight. Stayed here twice and got a space ok both times.
Rooms are small and basic but clean and comfortable.
Breakfast was from 7am and was excellent.
Staff very friendly.
