Disliked: Amenities
The room was tiny. It was also incredibly noisy. The bed was uncomfortable and leaned to one side. I couldn’t get the TV to work. The food was average at best.

This was exactly what we were looking for, we needed a bed for the night as had met friends for dinner and drinks while they were on a canal boat holiday. We had to leave early the next morning to get back for work. It was clean and tidy. We wouldn’t stay for a long stay but for the one night it was good. Staff were very nice, friendly and welcoming.

Disliked: Staff & service
Newly decorated/refurbished with a nice bathroom & comfy bed but it was really tiny and I had a view of the bins. Have to enter via the pub which smelled and was not inviting. The exterior door just below my room didn't close, let alone lock. The stair carpet and hallway chair were stained. The wifi is very very poor so I had no internet access, and no cell access either. Staff told me this is because it's a listed building and because of the rainy (but not windy) weather. My cell (vodafone) also didn't operate inside, so I was isolated and couldn't do as I had planned. I cancelled my 2nd night which they refused to refund.

Good place for a stop over and a bite to eat
Plenty of parking on arrival, nice pub with room upstairs. Check in was easy and hassle free, room was very small but expected from reading previous reviews. Very smart and tidy though with great shower. Mattress a little unforgettable. Poor wifi signal. Pub/restaurant service eas excellent menu was very creative with plenty to choose from. Little disappointed with the quantity of the meat but overall was good. Breakfast started at 8:30 and was the best ive had in a long time. Id stay again as a stop over but due to the room size it would get quite anoying.

Will not recommend
The room was small and everything was very old and worn. Bed was so squeaky that we woke up every time one of us turned. There was a rat in the restaurant area running in from the kitchen.

Good overnight stay
Nice looking pub, plenty of parking and the staff were very friendly. The room was ok, beds were clean and comfortable, not sure about what looked like a half eaten choc chip cookie left in a jar by the coffee. Did not like that the outside door was to be left ajar so anyone could walk in and if you let it shut by accident then you were locked out. I did this but luckily the pub was still open. For the price I would stay again for the night but wouldn't want it as a base for any longer

It was ok
First, it was not horrible. Very affordable. The beds were broken, tiles cracked, large crack in the wall of the room. For a cheap stay it was ok, but you really get what you pay for.

Great place to stay, perfect location.
Loved the location and freindliness of staff. All very helpful. Food great too and service. Room was great for money and very comfortable but there is a £20 fee for dogs we didnt know about. This covers for each 2 nights you might stay.

Lovely location with a canal side seating area, however it needs a bit of re- decoration as it looked like it was half way through being done up.
