Acceptable Village Pub Stay
good food friendly staff warm atmosphere dessert selection limited options television issue
The food was really good. The breakfast, in particular, was great. The staff members were very friendly and helpful, especially during check-in. The pub had a warm atmosphere. It felt cute to everyone.
The television was turned off after a game. Another game was starting. The menu could use more variety in desserts. I found the dessert selection limited . There weren't enough options.

reliable and friendly stay
varied menu comfortable couches cozy atmosphere attentive staff
I had dinner there both nights of my stay and enjoyed the varied menu. the lounge had comfortable couches. I nearly fell asleep on one. breakfast was excellent, with a lovely setting and a wood burner creating a cozy atmosphere. the staff were very great. i look forward to returning in a couple of weeks.
The pizza i ordered resembled a supermarket pizza. It was soggy with too much cheese. the overpowering cheese ruined any other flavors, disappointing.

beautiful garden hotel experience poor selection bad smell
The garden was beautiful. I liked watching the world go by while sitting there. Much thought was put into the flowers surrounding this garden. The flowers enhanced the hotel's experience, and I am thankful for it.
The selection of hot drinks were poor. There was also a bad drain smell in the bathroom. I paid extra for breakfast, but the choice are limited. The sausage was inedible, and the two juices had gone off.
