A great pub with a varied customer base, always busy and has very pleasant helpful staff. Showers and kitchen serviced regularly by cleaning staff. Beds comfortable, nice towels and tea/coffee, kettle in the room. Washing and drying facilities a real plus. ##### Nicola Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jul 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Simple ageless barrloom hospitality.

Bathrooms/toilets were nice and clean. Staff friendly, welcoming and helpful. Would be nice to have air conditioning or a fan already in room. ##### Susana Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Niki Jul 18, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities I liked that the people staying there or backpacking in the area were super nice, also the staff, I asked for an orange juice down at the pub under the hotel, (connected to the hotel) and when I realised I would t get much because of the small cup they said they could just make it a large to say thanks for staying, really would recommend, but the bed being two singles put together makes it hard to sleep in the middle and hog the bed, ##### Niki Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patrick Aug 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I love the college lawn so much ##### Patrick Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul Jul 24, 2024 Liked: Staff & service I liked the historic old building. The little kitchen was very handy. Didn't like all the noise, and didn't like the faulty toilet door catch, ...and didn't like the huge lack of parking. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### JENNIFER Dec 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities No mirror in room and no milk (powered or long life) for tea and coffee in room. Didn’t realise there was no TV in room. Once patrons left hotel it was very quiet. It was great as there was a shared kitchen with washer and dryer as well as iron and ironing board. ##### JENNIFER Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Aug 26, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Shower has no hot water. Warm water only constantly come out when the 1st floor pub is not in operation hours. Rest are all good. Good room, good bed for the price. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Yiying Jul 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The location is convenient, close to train station and central, cheap price. There‘s no parking lot, you have to parking car beside the street and notice parking time. The water getting cold when we took a shower, it’s hard in winter. ##### Yiying Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicholas Apr 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Cheap nights stay. Room is very clean but depending on how the other guests are the bathroom can be pretty bad. Either they aren't cleaned enough or other guests don't have the courtesy to leave the communal spaces tidy. ##### Nicholas Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Sep 16, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities Staff is nice . It would be great to have hair dryer provided . Hotel still under renovation. The bread block my way out ( see the pic) . Not for bringing luggage as you need to carry them there climb the stairs . There is only one toilet and one shower place for all genders . No central heating . The bed blanket is thin ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2AC6B5E45226182338BA1F8FFF9A2BC42961C66C1726469987553.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Amber Feb 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Very nice staff - friendly, hard working, good service. A very nice lemon drink on tap. Chips good texture crunch and tastw however not a fan of the lemon salt. Aioli was good wish more were to dip into. Room was good except for peeling paint patch that uglied room slightly. Nicely folded towels. Good bedding and bed size. Unfortinately no ac so fan had to be going for whole night as window was just for decoration. Toilet and sinks very clean, as well as the kitchen laundry area. Very clean. Shower glass could use a bit of jif but not unbearable. Water pressure was mid. Exit could use a nice carpet clean vacuum and stair reinforcing and some more lighting. Would stay again and location is good and public transport is accessible. ##### Amber Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nimet May 19, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were friendly and welcoming. The bathroom facilities were in poor condition; the shower area was leaking and the toilet seat wasn’t attached on properly. The cleanliness of the bedroom was good, but the bathroom areas were, once again, in poor condition. The hotel has a lounge/bar area that was right below our room so it loud and not a quiet stay, so wouldn’t recommend to those who are looking for a quieter getaway or those who want to be in bed early. The room door for the stay wasn’t closing all the way and had a gap on top of the door which caused conversations to be heard outside from the room, which unfortunately didn’t feel private. There’s no parking on premises but for weekends there’s free on street parking which is nice for a place that’s in the city circle. The only reason I’d give this place a 3/5 and not 2/5 if due to being close to the city and public transport for $80 a night, which seems to be on the lower end. ##### Nimet Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The White Mountain Hotel & Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/North-Conway-Hotels-The-White-Mountain-Hotel-Resort.h2191688.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Hyatt-Palm-Springs.h6305.Hotel-Information) > > [Barceló San José](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Barcelo-San-Jose.h788912.Hotel-Information) > > [Aerotel London Heathrow Airport Terminal 2-3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Aerotel-London-Heathrow-T2-T3.h21528024.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Book Cadillac Detroit](https://www.expedia.ca/Detroit-Hotels-The-Westin-Book-Cadillac-Detroit.h2227690.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Waterton Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Waterton-Park-Hotels.d181753.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Atlantis, Bahamas - Harborside Resort w/ all Atlantis Amenities included](https://www.expedia.ca/Nassau-Hotels-Atlantis.h30088750.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Aruba](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Aruba-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d9-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [The Langham, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Langham.h2112.Hotel-Information) > > [BestWestern Hotels in Chilliwack](https://www.expedia.ca/Chilliwack-Hotels-Best-Western.0-0-d6058408--bBestWestern.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Le Metropolitan Paris Tour Eiffel, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Paris-Hotels-Le-Metropolitan.h7145.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hotel Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Hotel-Windsor.h11362.Hotel-Information) > > [Victoria Inn Hotel and Convention Centre Winnipeg](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels-Victoria-Inn-Hotel-And-Convention-Centre-Winnipeg.h13226.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/lax/edmonton-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yul/toronto-to-montreal) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/del/toronto-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Olympia (OLM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/olm/vancouver-to-olympia) > > [flights from port alberni airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ypb/flights-from-port-alberni-airport) > > [Flights from Ajnala (ATQ) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/atq/del/sri-guru-ram-das-ji-intl-airport-to-delhi) ### Activities > [Things to do in Bocas del Toro](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Bocas-Del-Toro.d6023445.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Antigua Guatemala](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Antigua-Guatemala.d180589.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Tahiti Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Tahiti.d180103.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Thailand Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Thailand.d178.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/117/Mexico) ### General > [Visit Dehradun](https://www.expedia.ca/Dehradun.dx6838)
