A nice stay but first impressions were not good!

Room was basic and a little out dated, but it was clean and comfortable. Breakfast and evening meal were both good and service was with a smile. Check-in was a terrible experience! I presented myself at reception where a guy was standing, he looked at me , ignored me and made out he was looking at a sheet of paper! Another member of staff was aware of the situation and eventually he stepped in and offered some assistance. This approach on arrival is never a good start, so my stay was marred. If I hadn’t of paid I would have walked out! First impressions are important.

Great location, lovely breakfast!

One night stay for a flying visit. Rooms are quite tired but perfectly functional. Bar was really nice and they were showing the football. Really nice atmosphere in there, lots of holiday makers and food looked good. Breakfast was awesome. Didn't need to eat the rest of the day! A two minute walk to the station.

Easy access, very clean and fine room. We arrived at around 9.30pm, and went straight to bed. There is a little sofa area with a lovely view should you want to stay up and not be in the pub. Good for small children also. We had breakfast in the morning which was also fine and made our way.

Great location next to trains, and a fantastic pub/hotel with a very welcoming & friendly vibe. I wasn't expecting breakfast so this was a bonus to me! That said, rather pricey and not too good at being environmentally minded (single use plastics for soap and tiny bottles for example).

The team were fab! But it's a pub and at times I didn't feel safe with the members of the public that were in the bar and the smoking area. Other than that? The room was large and clean. Though I didn't get the cord for the shower, and shower curtain and water going everywhere.
