The hotel is conveniently located in the city center, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and sights. The staff is helpful, and the traditional pub atmosphere adds value for money. However, the appearance of the hotel is starting to show some signs of wear. Overall, a good base for exploring the area.

I stayed in a converted stableblock room above a noisy walk-in fridge, but I used earplugs and managed to get some sleep. The room was basic but served its purpose for unloading belongings.

The breakfast options were good, but they ran out of veggie sausages early in the morning. The bread was freshly toasted, which was a nice touch.

The hotel offers basic amenities in a converted stableblock setting. The surroundings are not luxurious, but it's a functional place to stay for the price.

Staying at this historical pub, beautifully renovated, was a unique experience. The cold ambiance suited us perfectly, but the noisy surroundings, particularly room 9 with the continuous fan noise and banging doors, disturbed our rest throughout the night.
