We were supposed to be in a "superior room". If room 6 is a superior room I wonder what the others looked like. The room was quite small, the pillows were all lumpy and not comfortable at all. There is no soundproofing in the room. After a long drive we had an early night but the kitchen extractor fan was below the window and was loud until it was switched off. After that we had to listen to the neighbours in room 5 talking over the volume of their TV, I have never watched Gogglebox but I have now listened to a whole episode. Finally, in room 6 there is no WiFi, no matter how hard I tried to get connected it didn't happen. To end on a positive note the staff were very friendly.

Lovely pub rooms

Quiet, comfortable rooms. Due to the weather, the room was quite hot and hard to cool down. The thick duvet was too much for sleeping, but the pillows and bed were very comfortable. Some instructions in the room on what to do at checkout if reception is not yet open would have been helpful.

Room smelt of drains, broken safe, broken window security, thin walls, and fire alarm went off at 1am. The fire alarm can go off in any hotel but most send a message to their guests or even partially comp the room. No comms from this hotel following incident.

The room was clean and quiet which was good. However the toilet seat was loose and bedside lights did not work. I left notification for the High Flyer so hopefully these will be sorted out as I do understand that these things can be missed if not advised. My concern was that we were told that if we wanted breakfast they would have to get someone in specially as they would not be getting in till 10am the next morning. Whilst they said they could do this it made us feel like it would be an imposition so we went elsewhere to eat in the morning.
