I stop at the hotel for an overnight stay, returning from one month travelling in the EU. I arrived at 8 pm and asked if I could have some dinner and I was told that it was a bit late for dinner!! However, kindly, she put something together for me. The food was actually quite good, basic beef stew and veggies, but tasty. I was served in the pub, where a large TV screen was showing a football match and some local man where having a pint or two. I didn't think that pub like this still existed in the UK, it sent me back to the 70', but not in a good way! Tatty furniture, fray carpet, badly painted walls, DIY everything. The same 'decor' was to be found throughout the place. My bed room, single on-suit, was tiny with a mish-mash of furniture from the local second end store (it seemed) and with some absurd details (fluffy rag on cover the toilet cistern lid!! A white DIY wooden frame around the wall light!)) and CH either at full blast or off. The breakfast (my choise was toast and jam) offered actually a decent coffee and very good granary bread. When I left I notice that on the front they are advertising "14 designer rooms"!! Definitely not mine....I had spent 20 nights on the road in 7 different EU countries, this hotel room was amongst the most expensive and by long the worst!
