“The operators create a friendly pub atmosphere that seems to be appreciated by locals and visitors alike; rooms are clean and provide essential amenities, albeit with a somewhat dated feel. I think the owners' willingness to go the extra mile with a late-night food offer really stood out. If you are sensitive to noise, be aware that late-night music might be an issue.”
