    Lovely stay, comfy bed, super clean, be prepared for some noise

    Liked: Very welcoming. Lovely spacious room with new bathroom and comfy bed and perfect tea and coffee facilities. And ear plugs, which you need as we were above the pub. The pub wasn’t as loud as the other tenants, which was bad luck that night as they arrived which much noise at 2:45am - but if you choose to stay in a pub in Durham what do you expect?! Location perfect. Will stay again.
