Don’t book unless you want...

Liked: I went to check in and was told I hadn’t paid despite to pay again, despite having proof that I had already paid. I ended up leaving and staying else where as I was not okay with being ripped off.
Disliked: They had all the evidence saying I prepaid and yet tried to change me again. When I told then no you clearly see I have paid already, they told me to just pay as I have no choice. They are just out to make as much money as possible. Be very careful if you attempt to stay there, the location is great but not worth it.

Perfectly fine for a one...

Liked: Great location. Good value for money for a one night weekend stay compared to other hotels. Comfy bed albeit small. Great air con and surprisingly quiet room/area considering it’s part of the pub.
Disliked: Rooms are part of the pub so no extra ‘hotel’ facilities. Bathroom is odd and shower area very small but ok for one night. As others have mentioned, no lifts so you need to walk up a few flights of stairs.

Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed...

Liked: Nothing😭
Disliked: Everything, there was mould on the exhaust, carpet, rubbish under the bed, couldn’t even open the window. Genuinely the most disgusting hotel I’ve ever stayed in, there was no airflow therefore it was extremely moist and uncomfortable. Almost is if it had just rained on fresh grass, like absolutely not okay. The bedsheets had yellow stains on it, I had to sleep on top of the bed with clothes on because it was so disgusting.
