    Queens head Durham

    Liked: Had a very enjoyable stay,, you check in at the bar in the pub. Very quick and friendly room was very clean. Stayed in room 1. Bathroom looked like it had a refurb. Only downside was no remote for the tv, but landlady said it was on order, no problem as can turn over with the buttons. Whilst having a drink in the bar we spoke to the landlady and she said she had only been there 12 weeks so was trying to get the pub back up and going after being closed for a while.

    Wouldn’t stay again

    Liked: Carpets were tatty and dirty, mirror was splattered in something. The bed side table was an safe with sicky back plastic on. The door to the room had clearly been forced open at some point and the key and door numbers don’t match ie I was in room 7 but keys had a fob on for room 17. The shared bathroom was dated and dirty so other than having to use the toilet I waited till I was home to shower. Yuck!

    Liked: Room was a good size. Close to a Sainsburys Local and a bus stop. About 30 mins walk to train station. Pub downstairs was a wee bit noisy. Doesnt serve breakfast but you can go to Wetherspoons in the town. Nice enough for a short stay.Outside needs renovating.
