Disliked: Staff & service
It is in the middle of Cowes so convenient for everything, being above a pub it is a bit noisy but to be expected. The windows open onto the high street which would be nice to know beforehand. I was there for for four nights but the room wasn’t serviced while I was there, bottled water was provided when I arrived but not replenished during my stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Right in the middle of the High Street so very convenient. Parking is 5 minutes walk. A traditional pub with rooms above. Our room was very compact and overlooked the storage yard which meant that, with the window open, there was noise from moving beer barrels around. It wasn’t very noisy but is probably not great if you want an early night and you’re a light sleeper.

Heart of Cowes.

A great place to stay, right in the heart of Cowes. Great music, atmosphere and staff. All staff were friendly, helpful and a joy to be around. The room was clean and comfortable and suited its purpose. Will stay again for sure.

Malcolm

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I booked the property going solely from the reviews and was not disappointed. The room was clean and comfortable. The food choices and service was good and i enjoyed eating there. I was not really expecting much as the cost was very reasonable but was impressed. The staff were really good and very pleasant. This is a town centre pub so noise may be an issue at times but during our stay it was only evident on the friday night (before xmas) which still was not a problem. I would definitely stay there again.

Good value stay

Generous room well decorated. The bathroom was roomy but would have benefited from a few hooks for towels & clothing. No breakfast available and no recommendation on where to eat but we found a good option at Harbour Kitchen just down the road.
