The television offered only a few channels, and i could not access bbc1. noise levels were excessive. Though entertainment until 1 am is advertised, i did not anticipate such intensity. it caused noticeable vibrations in the bed. the room contained only a single towel, a significant oversight.

The staff were VERY friendly. They offered a warm and cute greeting upon my arrival. I caught the kitchen just before it closed for lunch. My meal, a sweet potato curry served with chips and a salad, was lovely. The portions were REALLY generous.
The television only had a few channels. I couldn't get BBC1.

The location provided easy access to transport links. A bus stop was only a short, two-minute walk away. The pub had a beer garden located to the side. I felt this location provided a great alternative to staying directly in the town center.

The evening meals were good wholesome home cooked meals.
The initial room was quite outdated. I also noticed taped light fittings. A proper lock was not fitted to the door. The busy pub setting.
