Lion Hotel
The room was very cold and the bathroom was even colder as there was no heating in the room.
The beds were too low (I have rheumatoid arthritis so struggle to get up from low seats or beds) and the mattress was too soft.
The TV was tiny and there was a very limited supply of tea/milk.
However, the staff were very helpful and the breakfast was very good.

Been before but the place we stayed has got new owners and does need a lot of work doing. They don’t have a pub there and the hotel rooms need new windows. Other than that girls are fine and breakfast was good too. The other problem was we had to walk up to our hotels with all our bags too as the lift needs fixing.
