Tired and unloved.

Good location for town centre, and friendly reception but small, cramped room with dated and tired decor, the ensuite was well past its best before date and the single bed was very uncomfortable. I would not stay again unless desperate.

6/10 Good

Cheap and cheerful only downside was my room was above the local taxi rank and with sash windows was a bit rowdy at 2 am kick out time. Staff are friendly and location is good for local nightlife if that’s your thing.

It would have been nice to be warned that the taxi rank is outside and at 2.30am I would be woken up by screaming and shouting that lasted for about 40 minutes! Don't stop here unless you're going to go clubbing!!
Andrew, 1-night trip

Barebones

Room was clean but cold, very dated with a tiny TV , the sink's drain bubbled presumably when the other rooms used their sink ,it's next to a taxi rank so there were people outside shouting and laughing until 3am during the week. shared bathroom's show was antique.there was no wifi in the rooms i would say in suitable for business stops ... probably alright for someone to sleep after beeing out on the town but the staff seemed friendly enough
Paul, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

I was given a room no bigger than a cupboard, it was grim, looked like a 1970’s time warp. Shower was horrible with plastic shower curtain, limescale caked on the shower tray and grotty towels that looked liked they must have been at least 20 years old. Room lock was dodgy, very dangerous if there was a fire whilst you were in the room. There is a takeaway opposite and the smells seep into the room. On the plus side the staff can’t do enough for you.
Sue, 2-night trip

Overnight stopover

The outside of the hotel is going through a upgrade,I hope they then start on the rooms,the room I had although clean was very dated and in need of a revamp,other than that I would stay again.

Good value for money

I had a 3 night stay and found that this was excellent value for the money paid - The host Alex was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent. The location is very convenient for the centre of the town.

Good place to stay right in the centre

Owners are great people, very friendly and helpful. Needed a place to stay overnight whilst on business trip and hotel couldn't have been more convenient being right in the centre. Room was absolutely fine for my needs and spotless. Had a great nights sleep (best I've slept in a year). Recommended!

Gary, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good value for money

The staff were lovely, they need to sort out front door keys for late night entry. I am sure they will get around to modernising the upstairs as well as they have done downstairs. Great shower. Bar needs real ale

Ask about the disco before booking

The Barley Mow was OK - nothing outstanding but then it was cheap. Welcome was OK, Breakfast was good, kettle worked but there was a shortage of things to make with it (and few extra available when asked), TV worked on some channels, Bathroom was tiny and you could not use the toilet without banging your legs against the wall. I didn't get any of the rooms pictured on the website (perhaps they are modernising in stages). Biggest problem tho' was the disco which is run on Friday and Saturday nights from 10pm to 2am which isn't noted on the website.
