A Decent Stay
comfortable bed easy check-in noisy fan hard pillows
The parking was okay across the road. The check-in process was quick and easy. The room was in a separate building behind the pub. It included everything I needed and the bed was comfortable.
There was a noisy fan running from 8 AM to 8 PM. It seemed to be the extractor for the kitchen. The pillows were very hard and uncomfortable.

charming and friendly stay!
delicious food warm staff comfy beds pleasant experience
I really enjoyed the delicious food and the warm, cute staff. discovering the hotel's link to tolkien was a fun surprise. the beds were comfy, ensuring a restful night's sleep after exploring the area. i found the hotel provided a pleasant experience all around.
i found a bright green fire escape light rather bothersome, as it shone directly into the room while i was trying to sleep. it made it a little difficult to get a good night's rest.

My room was clean and well-equipped. The shower was particularly enjoyable (it had great water pressure). The breakfast offered a good selection of fresh and tasty foods. The staff was friendly and provided timely service.
My room was on the smaller side. It faced the beer garden with only a thin wooden door. Daylight was visible under the door and noise carried easily.

I really appreciated the large and spacious room. breakfast was fabulous. I chose what i wanted. the staff were so wonderfully helpful and cute. It seemed like home.
I found a very noisy fan running from 8am to 8pm, apparently it was the kitchen extractor. a second fan was also running until after midnight. I was not sure what that was. the pillows were very hard, very uncomfortable.

the location near the train station was convenient. however, our second-floor room smelled of old cooking oil. i found a green light half-covered in duct tape on the ceiling. it stayed on all night. breakfast service also proved difficult as i confirmed an early breakfast but this was not facilitated. i had to wait for my food.
