False advertising, does not serve meals. Staff were very unfriendly and kept the music blaring until after midnight. We were very glad to leave.

I’m not sure what this was like as I didn’t stay. When I arrived the pub was busy and being a woman on my own I felt intimidated to go in. When I asked if I could have my money back I didn’t hear anything back so I assume I will not see that again.

Bedroom was very nice, smaller than expected but clean with everything we needed. Bathroom was lovely. Shame that they don’t make food there anymore, like advertised online.

Loved staying here it was something very different, the beds were a bit noisy so maybe some new mattresses needed. Would have liked a mirror in the room too! Other than that no complaints, locals downstairs were great and friendly.

No sleep and lots of swearing until very late
No welcome and bar staff didn't respond when we arrived. They just stayed in the other side of the bar. A 'local' had to tell us to check-in around the back of the bar, but there was no signage for this. Rooms of same classification/cost have different specifications which aren't stated. No chance of a good sleep/rest. On handover of keys, we were warned that there may be noise until 11.30, when the pub shuts, but this went on until after 00.30 with raised voices arguing and swearing up until this time. We definitely don't expect anything too fancy, but we won't be returning.
