Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located near the town center with ongoing work nearby but suffers noise from traffic. The owner is very helpful, and the room was spacious and very comfortable. The dining experience was disappointing due to a malfunctioning toilet system and broken shower head. Price was reasonable, though some facilities need improvement.
The hotel's strong points are its good location near Morpeth town center and its friendly service. However, the rooms are basic and dated, with some maintenance issues like the broken shower. The dining experience has variety but lacks adequate seating during peak times, and noise from other guests can be a nuisance.
The hotel has lovely beds that are very comfy with the same password for easy access. Sarah, who did the rooms in the morning, was very accommodating. The room's location next to the road made it noisy during the day but quieter at night, could benefit from net curtains for privacy.
