Recent renovation great. We ate dinner downstairs having a simple pasta & nachos. Great portion sizes and tasty. Rooms are all freshly done, bed Bewdiful and a whopping great TV to boot. The shared bathroom is hardly shared like the country pubs we like to fraternise. Shared mean you don’t have your own, but you have sole use of the shower and toilet behind a locked door. Fresh out of the box, the bathroom was flasher than my one at home. Lovely big shower stream and hot almost instantly. For just over $100 it was a great stay. Bit of traffic noise but an extra bottle of red with dinner fixed that! Eleanor who checked us in(at the bar) was very good
