Nothing special.

Disliked: The second room on first floor was very noisy due to people in room above walking around until late. Although age of property means that rooms are quirky, something should be done to sound-proof rooms from floorboard noises above.Breakfast not impressive. Two poached eggs on two slices of brown sliced bread. Not sourdough as detailed on menu. No dressing of meal/plate. I could have made breakfast look more appetising.I was looking forward to Sunday roast and wasn't told until order was being taken that ALL roasts had run out. I should have been told that as soon as I sat down. It's not good enough to only tell customers when they are ordering that half of the menu isn't available!
