    We enjoyed the nice quiet location of this pub/restaurant with rooms. While the room layout was a bit awkward and not to our personal taste, the bed was super comfortable. The decor was clean and well decorated. If the price had been lower, we would have been happier, especially considering other options in the area. I'll recommend this hotel.
