So the first impression of the room is it smells a bit damp. There appears to have been a leak in the ceiling (evidenced by the damp marks on the ceiling) and the damp stains on the room information card (why would you not change that before your guest arrives?). On entry it also seems very loud trom the traffic outside. The bar man who showed me round did warn me about the noise and, yes, you expect a little noise when your room is over a pub.
Once the bathroom window was closed the noise from the street was ok and, honestly the noise from the pub wasn't an issue.
The tv remote seemed to be the wrong one (or wasn't working properly) as you had to turn the tv on/off at the wall.
The shower door came off the rails briefly and the towel rail/radiator is a little precarious.
But, having said all that, i couldnt help but like the place. The bed was comfy, the bar man very affable and it did the job of a cheap overnight sleep.
Not sure I would take the missus there or stay more than a night (or possibly two???) but definitely wouldn't write it off as an option.

Nice style and furnishings, all amenities I needed. Felt slightly wary arriving at night as access was an exterior side entrance with no working lighting. However I felt safe in the room and any noise from the pub downstairs was minimal. The room had signs of damp on some walls and the shower had mould patches. There were good quality tea and coffee options as well as toiletries. The bed was really comfy.
Overall a comfy and convenient stay.

Did not like anything - we actually booked another hotel and stayed else where and came back in the morning to collect luggage as we had rush to go to an event in the evening. Would not recommend this property at all was very dirty and grimy - dust and mould throughout.

Fine as a bed for the night - but it's a pub downstairs until midnight, so dont expect an early night. Quite shabby, smells damp, and grimy. Arrive late, sleep and leave early is my advice. That's what I did.

I arrived midnight, I already informed them that I was going to be late. The whole place was shut down. I stood at the door, pressed door bell several times. No answer, I called the number available on the account. I also emailed. There was no reply.
Finally, I had to leave the place after trying for half an hour. I had to go in search of a hotel in the middle of night, spent so much on taxi. I could not get any hotel room at 3 AM. I was allowed to wait in the lounge of one of hotels until that morning. Around 5.30 am, I left to the train station to catch the first train back to my destination.
I had a terrible experience. In addition, I did not get the refund. I tried through Expedia. Nothing has happened. I do not recommend this property.

I like that the rooms are above a pub - very old English. The bed was also comfortable and clean. There is a beautiful park nearby.
The pub is obviously the priority for the property. The stairs to the rooms are in questionable condition - very steep and narrow wooden steps.
The shower does not drain well - have to turn off while showering to let water drain before continuing. There was mold in the shower. My booking did say a king bed but the bed in our room was not a king bed.
Not being able to check in until after 4 was an issue as there was no where to store luggage on the area.
Okay place for a couple of nights.
