If I hadn't prepaid, I'd have refused the room and gone elsewhere.
It smelt overwhelmingly damp. It was a very depressing arrival. I had to ask for towels. To air the room I had the heat on all evening (in July!). The bed felt damp when I pulled back the duvet: it took a while to get rid of the smell, and rather longer to make the bed feel like I'd want to get into it.
The room had very little privacy, its large window looking straight onto the children's play area, with no net or screen. I retreated to my room but it was noisy - kids were being kids in the play area. I had to have the window open to air the place, so the noise almost drowned out the TV. About the TV: it had no remote control. But then, it had no aerial cable either. I'm not sure what it was there for. Happily I carried a WiFi TV stick, so I was able to watch Netflix.
I booked by following the link on the pub;s website, which took me to *******. Beguiled by the description there of "bed and breakfast" I booked, only to learn on arrival that no breakfast was being served. Disappointing: I was expecting it to be included in the price I'd paid.
