Average stay
Bedrooms are in need of a refresh, not as nice as the pictures suggested. Expect noise until about 10pm from the pub. Bed was not great, sagging and lumpy. Nobody was to be seen in the morning for checkout or breakfast so not sure how that works, I went and got breakfast in town.

Absolutely lovely place to stay. Staff super helpful. Fantastic value for money! Gorgeous terrace outside which is lit at night and so pretty! Beds comfy and bathroom well appointed. It is noisy, but that is not the hotel's fault. It is in the centre of Newbury and there is traffic. Bit of renovation to be done outside, but I guess they'll raise the prices when this is fixed. Didn't bother me that the paintwork was peeling outside.

2/10 Poor

Poor service
Car park access wasn't detailed on their site. Ended up with parking in a separate car park and incurring charges. Phoned before hand but no option would go through to a member of staff despite numberous attempts. Bathroom light broken in the bathroom as soon as I checked in. Clock wasn't the right time Poor communication from staff as to how to get back into the building after hours ended up with us walking around the building. A simple "you need this door" would have been so simple and saved a lot of hassle but given the other issues it's clear staff simply don't care

Bedbugs
The staff made sure I either arrive before they close up or that they have made arrangements for me to check in. The room is seemingly clean though ridden with moths and bedbugs which I have been their food for the night keeping me up the whole night.

I thought the staff were very friendly but the overall condition of the property was very basic. I would not recommend any of my friends to stay.

Disapointed and over priced
Wasn't made aware of possible noise from town, in room info said ear plugs would be provided, they weren't! Sofa bed uncomfortable, main bed was very hard. Issue with water, poor lighting. Staff very laid back, no signage for check in. Expensive for what in was.
