“There's something appealing in how this property combines a traditional British pub with a place to stay, steps from Bath's Roman heart. I appreciate that the daily breakfast isn't an afterthought, and that they seem willing to work with dietary needs. The location certainly eases exploring the city; being that close to the train station is a definite plus.”

good selection continental options dyson fan perfect location easy walk uneven floor door jamb narrow stairwell public car park
The breakfast included a good selection (it had both english and continental options). the room had a dyson fan, useful. the location was perfect for shopping. I could easily walk to many stores.
the floors were uneven, and i nearly fell into the door jamb. accessing the room required navigating a narrow stairwell. i found the advertised car park was actually a public car park a street away (a bit of a trek).

My room lacked an elevator, so carrying luggage was a challenge.
