Beds were put together but were to different heights. Shower was unusable as the shower head was absolutely disgusting. No wifi. Room had a bad odour. Had to wrestle with the door to get into the room. Bathroom door was damaged and wouldnt stay closed overall it has been the worst hotel stay i have ever had

We enjoyed our stay - the room was large and spacious, however it would have been helpful to have a small fridge. We stayed for the week but the first night seemed to be karaoke night, so it was on the loud side until about midnight All in all the space was great

After a breakdown we arrived very late. The owner made arrangements to leave keys for us and made sure we knew where to park.

Aweful

Worst night I’ve ever had in a place. Hairs on pillows. Quilt had dirty marks. Blinds disgusting. Couldn’t turn radiator off (stuck on full the whole night). Turned taps on in bathroom and both were hot. Took a bit for cold water to come through.

Go into Bay Horse which was a loud karaoke bar on a Sat night. Bartender told me to go across the street to check-in. Go across. They give me key and send me back to the bar and our room (newly renovated and clean enough) is above the bar. Floor was literally vibrating from the loud bass and singing directly below us. Left and found another hotel.

What a pleasant surprise as it was not what I expected. Check in across the road at an enticing Indian Restaurant - able to safely park car in the Restaurant Car Park - room was very clean, comfortable bed, great shower, larger than usual TV. Room looked out on a busy dual carriageway but noise limited by glazed window and noise from pub downstairs was bearable and ended at closing time. Pricing was incredible. Will definitely be back.

A night to forget

Pulled up at the bay horse on a very busy duel carriageway and was told we had to check in across the road at an Indian restaurant it was a difficult task then had to re cross the road with all our luggage and the dog we were given the wrong key and ended up in someone else’s room had to re cross the road twice again now it was feeling like a motorway tried to go into the bar downstairs for a drink as we had travelled over 200 miles to be told we could not go in as they were having a private party no mention of this when booking to top it off the noise was shocking until 3am at about 1.30 am there was a huge fight under our window there was a line of police cars and the language was atrocious so going to set off now over 200 miles with ver little sleep whilst the drunken revellers a probably having a good day in bed thanks folks

If you enjoy karaoke late into the night these rooms above the bar are for you. Probably better if you go down to the bar then to try to sleep.

Short but sweet stay

amazingly welcoming and kind staff, who accommodated to our needs. The room was spacious and clean. The only negatives I would say, was there was no wifi or information about wifi in the room even though it was advertised, the towels were not changed and the tea and coffee was not topped up during our stay. And it was loud in the rooms due to the pub downstairs and the pub having building works done. But other than that you couldn't fault it

Bedbugs

Nice people and a nice room. Unfortunately I woke in the morning covered in over a hundred bedbug bites. Which was a real shame as other than that it had been fine, but the rooms (well, room 1 anyway) obviously need a deep clean.

Not a place to stay when you have children as the bar had karaoke until the early hours of the morning My daughter who’s 11 was upset that she couldn’t get to sleep I was so upset that I nearly left to try and get somewhere else but at that time I didn’t think I could No mention of that there could be some noise

This property is awful, it’s upstairs a noisy pub, the door leading to the rooms is left unlocked and is in a dimly lit back alley of the pub. There were bed bug traps on the windowsill as I came into the property which isn’t very appealing. The check in for the property is across a busy 4 lane road in the Indian restaurant. When I asked the member of staff who showed me the room what time the pub downstairs closed he said sometimes 1am but mostly later. Overall a terrible property with deceiving pictures

The owners changed the locks during my stay. They key they gave me didnt work. My passport and all my personal belongings were locked in the place and there is no one who will answer your calls past 9ish. It made me feel terrified that i would be sleeping on the streets that night. I had to shove my arm through through the mail slot and use a stick to unlock it from the outside. I left two terrified crying voicemails begging them for help. Its 2 days later and I have heard nothing from them. I left a night early and opted to sleep in the airport. Never will stay here under any circumstances ever again

No on-site reception. No information provided where to check in - it’s an Indian restaurant over road. Not very helpful. Main door to building didn’t lock. Felt very unsafe as the rooms are above a busy pub and door is in smoking area - pub has nothing to do with rooms. Very very loud, disco and karaoke until 3am so no sleep what so ever. AVOID this place as it’s horrendous and description of facilities etc are incorrect on Expedia eg. No a/c, no reception etc.
