The Full English Breakfast itself was delicious, especially the sausage but our toast was only brought out after the meal despite us reminding them about it. We ordered a pot of tea and again had to remind them about it only to be told that they were busy with other orders (fair enough, but there are nicer ways to say that). I asked if I could at least have a glass of water and was told it would come out with the tea. We were standing at the bar with clean glasses and water at the ready and were refused a glass of water! The staff here need a serious attitude adjustment.

The owners are very friendly and down to Earth, and while it may be a bit tricky to find them on a busy evening in the bar, they're quick to sign you in and show you to your room. We even had our room upgraded to a bigger larger bed. The room is modest but clean and nice and certainly fair for the price. The booking also comes with a complimentary breakfast (my first English breakfast) which was good. Big. Britishy. But good. Our only complaint arose when someone decided to enter the previously empty room across from us and start having sex all night with the door open. Old building + thin walls + weird sex & slapping sounds = really unhappy Jenny. While after a solid but polite 'shut up' conversation, they did finally go to bed. Or at least closed the door. But the next morning after an odd apology from the owners combined with an unfortunate voice recognition during breakfast we realised that the slapping sex couple were friends with the owners of the hotel. The whole thing was a bit odd. That being said, the owners were quite accomodating and even allowed us to keep our room until we left to catch the coach back to London. To be honest, this is the sort of place that's best for chatty folk who are looking for something relaxed, chilled and to get a taste of town life. If you're looking for a bit more a romantic weekend getaway, choose somewhere else.

I only stayed there one night, but I think I got a really nice impression of what this place is like. Actually the reception is only open for Sam hours of the day, as it is just a piece of beef and not a hotel with a 24-hour reception. But on the day of my arrival, there were major traffic disruptions, so I could not make it in time. I called and they helped me out very friendly. They granted me a possibility to get in even doing the night, and it got one until I arrived. If there would have been any problems, I am of no doubt that I could have reached him when calling. When you arrive, you are asked to choose your breakfast: you can choose between a full English breakfast, a continental breakfast and scrambled eggs with salmon. As I read online, at the full English breakfast is really good at that place, I of course chose English breakfast. The next morning comma my breakfast was prepared in the very moment I arrived and the atmosphere was very sympathetic and open. Another family, who was visiting some friends in town, did get all details possible they needed to have a look around the city. And as my appointment did not take part because of the weather disruptions, I asked whether I could stay in the breakfast Lounge till my train leaves and they would let me although they were not lodged and even some hotels sure you wouldn't have the letter stating that breakfast area. I even had a really nice chat and even though the breakfast was over, I was asked if I needed any more drink, so I thankfully accepted to have another coffee. The room was very cosy and had all the details you could expect from a 4 star room. The selection of sweets, like a sweet before you go to bed or a cookie to drink with a cafe or a tea was really delicate. Also the selection of tea and such was really nice, I tried the red berry tea and it was really strong and amazing taste, nothing you would expect from any random fruit tea. They put in a fresh milk in the hotel bar so I put it in my coffee. That is the first time I've ever seen this amount of passion for your guests. Every time again, I would choose this place over a four star hotel that could be comparable in terms of price for accommodation.
