Breakfast was good. Room was better than I was expecting after reading negative reviews on tripadvisor. The checking in procedure, having to wait 10 mins for someone to arrive was a bit bizzare. |

Close to town with parking. Room was very small and dirty, could say filthy. Ensuite sink and around sink was very dirty, and door would only open half way as door closer to main door in the way. Staff were polite and friendly but clothing was dirty and scruffy. |

Mature couple Sleaford, Lincolnshire, United Kingdom August 22, 2008 |
We had a room that had been very recently refurbished. It had a lovely view over the river and it was comfortable. Breakfast was freshly cooked and of a good overall standard. This is a reasonable budget hotel. Our room was a reasonable size for a double; it didn't need the additional single bed which made cramped. The building is clearly very old, and has charm - the stairs on the other hand are pretty steep and not suited to someone with mobility problems. The inside of the hotel has been re-decorated, the outside needs the same treatment. Parking is limited but free. |

No evening meals served. We needed to leave early each morning and asked if we could have continental bfast in our room. Onlycereals arrived so asked if they had rolls or something. Only ordinary bread. We took that plus jam as better than nothing. Carpet in room badly needed hoovering and cobwebs on bathroom ceiling were disgusting. Liquid soap too weak to do anything.Access to entrance poor. |
