Locked Out!

Did not explain that need a keycode to get in (arrived back at 12.30am and was locked out of hotel, had to climb in through a top floor window!). Very noisy, both inside and out, so found it very hard to sleep.

Depressing!

So depressing!! Reeked of old and cigarettes, furniture and fittings looked decades old. Very basic rooms, shared toilet didn’t have toilet paper in the morning. Single glazed windows and the traffic can be heard so loud. The price at the desk of the pub was also £25 cheaper than hotels.com

Staff great. Room not so great.

Firstly I want to say that I got a warm welcome by staff. My disappointment was that my room was cold and generally uninviting. It also looked like is was in desperate need of refurbishment. My biggest gripe though was that the lock on my door did not work so I had to leave my luggage in my car when I went out for the evening. In the morning I was looked after very well and enjoyed a lovely breakfast. So the staff were great but the room was very poor.

This pub should not have accommodation!! The room required a total refurbishment. Thread bare carpet furniture falling apart and inadequate. Glass pane in window missing so boarded up. Towels supplied were like cardboard and no facilities to dry them. Corridors also in a mess. Took forever to check in. We wanted to leave immediately but due to a horrendous journey we were exhausted. Woken at 3am by doors slamming and people shouting which went on for over an hour. Very unsafe property to stay in as no emergency number or anyone to contact on the Saturday evening. Guests should be paid to stay there absolutely awful

Nervous to visit after reading reviews. However, there is a lot of refurbishment going on. The downstairs looks fabulous and the car park/outside space is being worked on. The room was ropey, window held open with a block of wood and a pane of glass missing. Curtains not hanging correctly and a socket out. But, we arrived when they were busy and so checking in was delayed. The staff apologised for wait, and the room! The breakfast was absolutely banging and the staff were exceptional. Helpful with questions and went out of their way, which more than made up for the room.

Propery is a Green King pub with some rooms above. The pub, and the food in the pub are fine. The rooms could be a set for a 1950s film. There is a notice which says the rooms are shortly to be completely refurbished. However the price is very good value considering free parking, and a free english breakfast.
