Never stay here

The ship was very disappointing. The bathroom almost flooded when using the shower because of clogged up hair in the drain that had not been cleaned. The bedsheets were stained. A fire alarm then went off at 4am and no staff on site to support us. We were due to leave for London at 6am so no point trying to get back to sleep. When we asked for a refund, hotels.com told us the ship had refused to pay it. Steer clear of this property. The worst service I’ve had.

Decent accommodation in a good pub

One night stop for work near by. Car park was a disappointment as couldn't park the Van due to height restriction. quite noisy as windows are old, but the food and the pub are good, beds comfy and a reasonable price

One Night Stay.

Perfectly adequate for a one night stay. But, unless one knows the area, getting to it via Sat Nav is challenging, and the local parking is a nightmare!:.

Very noisy road, double glazing needed

Nice lively place the staff in the bar are outstanding. The big issue is the outside noise. Bin men waking you up at 05:45 is not my idea of fun. Very noisy area

Good room, need soundproofing

Good room, but noisy at night. Need some double glazing because got almost no sleep with the shouting, fights and arguing outside the window from everyone pouring out of the clubs.
