The Eastern Hotel - Adults Only

Clean, quiet Hotel. Put heater on and Room was Comfy. Nice clean and comfy Bed. Will stay again. Good communication from Hosts about Check-in.

It's in a reasonably close location from the train station. I arrived just after 1pm however the entry door was locked, so I had to call the phone number I received in my email booking to gain entry before 2pm. It's self sustaining with no reception, although I did see a cleaner there the following morning. The room itself is what you need it to be, a comfortable bed, a fan which cooled the room down, a heater for the cooler months, and lots of charging points. The fridge and freezer were quite large, tea and coffee facilities were decent, the shower and toilet were fine with good flow and solid hot water. While it wasn't luxury, I was happy with everything, and it was very good for the price. It was very quiet as well with no traffic noise. The pub itself wasn't open while I was there nor did I see any signs of when it was reopening, but the leagues club across the road appeared to sell meals and drinks.

Overall is reasonable, cheap accommodation solution. The building is very old and smells like it too - even with the window open all afternoon and ceiling fan on it was impossible to escape the mustiness. The floors are super creaky and the ‘sound proofing’ isn’t really sound-proof - being on top of a pub and next to train crossing - but does the job enough. I didn’t realise the bathroom (& kitchenette) were shared spaces and that it’s literally on top of a pub that has live music - so that was a reminder to read the fine print. The facilities were very clean (other than the car park which could do with a mow and a tidy up) and for accommodation on a budget it did the job. Large comfy bed, large screen tv, wifi, etc. Shower pressure not great nor did the hot water last long so be ready for a speedy one!
