Pleasant

Liked: Beautiful pub! Friendly people. It was a very hot day. Very happy to see that there was a fan in the room!
Disliked: We dined at the pub, and thought that the food was about a 5/10. We also ordered a drink that tasted like there was something wrong with it, which we send back, and still got charged for it. The mattress was very very hard.

Nice stay for one night

Liked: Cute old inn with quirky rooms. Outside sitting in the beer garden available.
Disliked: The room faced a road with lots of traffic and downstairs there is of course the pub, so it wasn't particularly quiet. Bathroom was on the tiny side but very clean.

Not quite as good as...

Liked: The staff were brilliant. Everyone was friendly and very helpful. We changed rooms and the staff were very good about it. Very warm so good to have outdoor space. Well positioned for park and ride to Canterbury.
Disliked: Room on noisy road. Needed windows open due to hot weather . No air conditioning just a fan. Fried breakfast good but no cereal, fruit or croissants - only one item on the menu allowed and extra payment expected if anything extra required.

Night away in Cantery

Liked: Staff are brilliant and the food is good quality and super tasty.Bed was comfy Great location right next to the park and ride.Nice garden area
Disliked: Window would not stay open and doesn't open fully but I guess is for safety reasons. To be fair we didn't raise it and the staff are so good they probably would have sorted it. The bathroom was on the small side.

Very good

Liked: Convenient to local bus service to town centre. Restaurant very good
Disliked: Room at front of building overlooking very busy road. Couldn't open window so had a fan provided in room. I am a light sleeper so needed ear plugs to sleep as road very busy .
