    Ok. Cheap room, fine. Cheap beer, fine. Food menu?? Awful. Proper awful. Customer service?? Rather…read morehostile! Ordered food to find that half of the limited menu is unavailable and on re-ordering a refund on the varying price was not given. I'd only return here for a beer and a bed, as long as you put a rail on one side to stop yourself from rolling out. Nice for a visit for a tourist, but for anything else, AVOID

    Ah, the British. If they're not hoarding all the history with the rest of Europe, they're…read moredisplaying their wit. The "New Inn" has been around since roughly 1430, and is reputed to have been frequented by Shakespeare, if you into that sort of thing. Me, I'm into giant, black-wood columns and crossbeams that are literally two feet by two feet. The New Inn is in the heart of beautiful old Gloucester, in an area where cars are (mostly) forbidden. So make sure you have some comfortable shoes to enjoy the neighborhood, which is should be explored. There are plenty of nearby shops and restaurants, and a fantastic old church, the Gloucester Cathedral (but that's a different review). While staying at the New Inn, make sure that you visit the attached pub. I wasn't a fan of beer at the time, so I can't tell you anything about what they served, but it is warm, welcoming, and attractive. Just be warned: do not expect all the comforts of home at the Inn, such as level floors or straight walls. You're going here for the charm and history. And the fact that it's very affordable. But mostly, because the place has been around longer that there were Caucasians in North America, and speaking as one of those North American Caucasians, that's pretty damned cool.
