The King's Head Hotel

Good

An inexpensive stay.

Liked: Staff very helpful. An inexpensive night in the town I wanted. Comfy bed. Clean.
Disliked: The rooms and corridors were clean, but badly in need of TLC (paintwork etc). I don’t mind sharing a bathroom, but the fact that the only loo for the rooms was in the bathroom is likely to annoy others as well as me.

Exceptional

Adequate for my needs as...

Liked: The staff were excellent, friendly and welcoming, always accomodating and helpful
Disliked: General appearance of the hotel and room, all needs updating and investment by the Brewery owners

No wonder we were the...

Liked: It was central to where we needed to be
Disliked: It was dirty, I found the one member of staff I dealt with rude

Too low-brow for someone older

Liked: Low end, low budget, not to my liking. It might appeal to the “Britain on $60 a Day” crowd but it held no sppeal to me.
Disliked: On a busy street with traffic noise from 5 am to Midnight. Very old building with not much done to fix it up. Security system was old and cranky. Shared shower stall needed to be cleaned.

Pleasant

Excellent value, but look outside...

Liked: Very spacious room - tall, airy, even an open fireplace!
Disliked: No breakfast facilities - it's really stretching it to call it a 'hotel!'

First time stay nearby kitchen...
