Room okay but not returning

I visited here for a one night stay and requested a quiet room prior to booking. On check-in, located in the main pub area - it was quick and simple. Unfortunately I was placed in a room right next to the main road which I learned was busy most of the night. The bed was comfortable but had an uninterrupted night sleep due to pub patrons entering/leaving noisily, car doors opening/closing, general street noise. I was awake at 0315 and could not return back to sleep. I could not check out in the traditional sense as there was no-one at reception in the separate hotel building and the pub across the road was closed (0630). There was also a significant leak in my room and had no opportunity to report this on leaving. I am not sure I would stay here again

Potential but needs some love

The room we were given (204) was spacious enough for a family of 4. The beds and pillows are comfortable and we all slept well. Unfortunately the mouldy smell meant that the window needed to be open 24/7. I suspect the air unit is filled with mould (we didn’t use it for this reason). The bathroom had no window or extraction fan which doesn’t help. The staff were friendly and we checked in late at 11pm across at the pub (easy). This place has potential but it is definitely not worth the £100 per night that we paid.
