Noisy!

Stayed on a Saturday evening. After travelling and a long day I was looking forward to a rest. The room was clean but no remote for the tv and the toilet seat was broken. I spoke to the staff and nothing materialised to sort either. Also there was entertainment which I wasn’t aware of so it was very noisy, especially as I was directly above them. I wouldn’t have stayed if I had been informed of this. Luckily it did finish at 10.00p.m. On the good side the evening meal I purchased and the breakfast which was included were very nice.

Warm and friendly with great food and service.

I was on business and don't really like the clinical nature of premier inn ect. I have stayed here before and love the traditional atmosphere and as it is a kind of gastro pub, the food, including the breakfast is really nice.
