True Gem in Yorkshire
warm atmospherehome-cooked foodfriendly localdistant bathroom
The landlady was cute and helpful. She created a warm atmosphere. I appreciated the home-cooked food (i think it was delicious). The locals were friendly, sharing stories and laughter.
The shared bathroom was not en suite. It was located a bit far from my room. This meant a short walk down the corridor, which wasn't ideal, especially at night.

clean roomfriendly atmospherehelpful staffbar noise
The landlady was an asset, and the staff helped me book a taxi. The overall atmosphere was friendly with the room kept clean. I especially appreciated the cleanliness of the kitchen and wash facilities (there were more facilities than expected).
I noticed some noise from the bar later in the evening. It resonated through into my room, and it became a disturbance.
