I emailed the Hotel before writing this review, but have not received a reply back. So, here goes….for £94 per night B&B in high season, I did expect that the room would be basic. What I also expected was that the room would be clean. I unlocked the door to an unwelcoming room, drab and in need of decoration.
I was attending a wedding so needed a room as a base. I got back to the room quite late, and just needed to get into bed. Firstly, I couldn’t close the sash window, which could do with a good clean. I closed the curtains holding the bottom of the fabric because they were grimey. All of my bags went onto the desk because I felt the carpet and chair could also do with a good clean. When I pulled back the bottom sheet, the mattress protector was horribly stained that I slept, cold and miserable, on the top of the quilt.
The plug was jammed in the sink. I tried to push it up from underneath but it wouldn’t budge. It was also cracked. The toilet was clean and sanitised but I didn’t want to use the shower which was mouldy in places.
Everything could do with a deep clean and cheering up. The staff that I encountered were pleasant. I couldn’t face breakfast there so I checked out and ate elsewhere.
If anyone asked me today if I would recommend The Kings Head Hotel, I certainly wouldn’t.
