    The cosy vibe of this little hotel was mind-blowing! The staff, especially Christine and Vicky, were super lovely and went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. They gave us great advice on attractions, transportation, and local restaurants. We were even upgraded to a larger room and allowed a late check-out without any extra charges. The bed was comfortable, and the hotel was only a short taxi ride away from the town centre. Plus, they had free Wi-Fi and a cool bar/lounge area. Highly recommend this jaw-dropping place!

    We got great value for our money at this cute little hotel. The room was tidy and had everything we needed, including our own TV, bathroom, and tea/coffee facilities. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The inn's location was convenient, with a short walk to town and a nearby Tesco and Costa.

    The only thing that could have made the breakfast better was more variety in the food options.

    The hotel is conveniently located very close to the railway line, making it easy to access. the rooms are cozy, with comfortable beds and clean bathrooms. the staff are friendly and their customer service is remarkable. the hotel offers basic facilities such as electric plugs for charging your devices.

    There is no breakfast facility at the hotel, meaning that you'll have to go out to find something to eat.

    Convenient location close to the town centre and easy to find. Clean and comfortable rooms with efficient bathrooms. Surprisingly quiet atmosphere despite being located in a pub.

    Disappointing lack of breakfast provided. Noisy train tracks nearby, causing disturbances.

    We recently had a lovely romantic escape and stayed in a quaint little inn. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the town center and conveniently close to the train station. The staff were incredibly friendly and offered us a complimentary welcome drink upon arrival. We also appreciated the cozy and comfortable room, complete with a plush king-sized bed and a charming view of the surrounding area.

    We did encounter a few minor downsides during our stay. The bathroom was a bit on the small side and lacked some necessary amenities.

    I had a wonderful stay at this place. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. The room was tidy and had everything I needed, including a TV, bathroom, shower, and tea/coffee facilities. The rustic yet cute style of the room added to the overall charm. Additionally, the location was perfect, with the town and a large Tesco and Costa just a short walk away.

    I had a great experience at this venue and would highly recommend it to family and friends.

    Conveniently located, just a short walk from the city centre and a large grocery store, this rustic hotel had comfortable beds and clean bedding. In-room facilities included a TV and tea/coffee amenities. the staff were friendly and helpful, offering assistance when needed.

    the lack of air conditioning made it difficult to sleep during warm nights.

    We had a fantastic stay at this lovely little inn. the staff, Christine and her granddaughter, were amazing hosts and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. They even upgraded our room and allowed us a late check-out without any extra charges. the bed was comfortable, and the inn was only a short taxi ride away from the town center. We really appreciated the helpful advice on places to visit, transportation, and restaurants provided by Christine and Vicky.

    Their warm hospitality made our time in Colchester truly memorable. Cons: Nothing could have been better!

    The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make our stay enjoyable as backpackers. the room was tidy and had all the necessary amenities, including a TV, private bathroom, and tea/coffee facilities. the rustic and cute style of the room, complete with a built-in wardrobe and vanity desk, added to the charm. the location was convenient, with a short 10-minute walk to town and another 10 minutes in the opposite direction to a large Tesco and Costa.

    The staff, particularly Christine and her granddaughter, were amazing hosts and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. They even upgraded us to a larger room and allowed us to have a late check-out without any additional costs.
