Really great little room at the top of a cool pub. Easy to get in and out and super quiet considering it’s a busy road and there are lots of people using the pub during opening hours. The staff were helpful, when my room had no hot water they kindly allowed me to switch rooms. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely room and facilities. It is above a pub so has some noise but that’s very well explained. Helpful staff Would suggest a good clean/renew sealant round shower but otherwise just what was needed.

Overall great value for money, liked the location as well. WiFi was spotty, had to find another location to gain stable access and heater wasn’t on upon arrival so it took a while for the room to warm. Otherwise, we would stay again for a quick overnight

Really enjoyed my stay here, staff in the pub downstairs are lovely, and it was a great and lively place for us to have a drink in late on. It’s probably worth mentioning that there is no parking onsite and you have to find a spot on the residential streets nearby, it wasn’t a problem for us but may be for others, especially if you have a a few bags to carry. The rooms are upstairs and you have to climb up some wooden outdoor stairs and cross a courtyard to get there which might also present issues for some. My room was spacious and clean, and I would happily stay again.

Clean and comfortable. Access is through the rooftop terrace which is busy on nice days. Good location, very convenient for us. Although no parking available at the pub we easily found somewhere to park on nearby residential streets.

Nice stay

It was a nice hotel room, what you would expect from staying above a pub on a Friday night. The only issue we had was the shower drain had not been cleaned properly but that was a quick fix. Other than that it was a really nice stay, bar staff were lovely and friendly as well.

Overall a very good stay. Had no issues with noise or sleep. It's a room above a pub so I wasn't expecting a hotel experience or service. But I did expect it to be clean, which it wasn't. Bathroom needs a good scrub and dusting and the floors need to be hoovered at least.

Acommodation itself was generally good. Clean and well presented although showing some signs of needing refreshing - shower base and kettle. Listing suggests this is a pub with rooms. It is not. This is a pub with privately owned letting rooms above it. Due to general area security at entrances and external stairs leading to rooms could be worrying to some guests. Lack of nearby secure parking can also be a concern. That all said rooms were good enough for me to consider staying again if the price was right.
