Really enjoyed my stay here, staff in the pub downstairs are lovely, and it was a great and lively place for us to have a drink in late on. It’s probably worth mentioning that there is no parking onsite and you have to find a spot on the residential streets nearby, it wasn’t a problem for us but may be for others, especially if you have a a few bags to carry. The rooms are upstairs and you have to climb up some wooden outdoor stairs and cross a courtyard to get there which might also present issues for some. My room was spacious and clean, and I would happily stay again.

I feel like it's a 2.5 star experience. To access our room, we had to go up poorly lit, slippery outdoor steps. The room was okay. There was a kettle with a nicely stocked coffee bar, plenty of Lotus biscuits and very pretty mugs and saucers. There was also a hair dryer, drawers, and clothing rail. Unfortunately the WiFi didn't work and the bathroom in room 1 was incredibly small and mouldy with a broken extractor fan. Not being able to feel clean made my stay a lot less enjoyable.

Lovely room and facilities. It is above a pub so has some noise but that’s very well explained. Helpful staff Would suggest a good clean/renew sealant round shower but otherwise just what was needed.

Lovely little place

Public car park around the back which is handy. Great location for central Bristol. Warm welcome. Clean and comfy room. Could do with little sprice up here and there. Lovely bar with a great selection on tap and on shelf. Great atmosphere and would happily stay at again

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Acommodation itself was generally good. Clean and well presented although showing some signs of needing refreshing - shower base and kettle. Listing suggests this is a pub with rooms. It is not. This is a pub with privately owned letting rooms above it. Due to general area security at entrances and external stairs leading to rooms could be worrying to some guests. Lack of nearby secure parking can also be a concern. That all said rooms were good enough for me to consider staying again if the price was right.

The lady who showed me around was ideal. Room 3 is very tired but the owners had made a good effort. You pay for what you get. Compared to other prices in Bristol that evening this was fair. Parking was around the corner but no charge for the hours I stayed. Overall a good option for a night in Bristol. Close enough to walk to the City but regular buses too.

Love it.

Lovely staff, nice pub, lovely and clean room. I found the tiny horse in my room and I loved it... and of course I left it there! 😊 Only one problem: wi-fi doesn't work.
