loved every single detail!
friendly staffroom decorgreat atmosphereneeded room
The room decor was fine, full of cute, interesting features i had never seen before! the staff were super friendly upon my arrival and explained everything clearly. The room had everything i needed. i found the pub to have a great atmosphere, especially with locals meeting after work i'd totally recommend a stay!
my only minor issue? the shower pressure wasn't the best, it could have been a little stronger! everything else was spot-on, though.

great atmosphereconvenient locationlackluster experiencepoor repair
The location is quite convenient. The room provided a good view of the archway to the front. The bar had a great atmosphere. The service was fantastic.
The check-in experience was lackluster. The lady serving us seemed distracted. The building exterior is in a poor state of repair. I think the pub hasn't had a decent deep clean in a while.

The location proved quite practical. It has proximity to key areas. The recently updated rooms are noteworthy. I found the cleanliness excellent. The staff offers assistance in a quick manner.
The stairs to the upper floors are somewhat steep. The ascent poses a challenge with luggage. I recommend requesting a lower floor if accessibility is a concern.
