A piece of old Bury St Edmunds.
This is a basically C19th Inn, although some of it might be older. The room was clean and bright, the en-suite shower the same. Tea/coffee and kettle &c provided in the room. Bed fairly comfortable. Two things that were not so good: there was no hot water from the hand basin tap - no water at all in fact - and this could not be rectified until after the weekend (I booked in Saturday afternoon). All Ok in the shower. I could not open either the bedroom window nor the bathroom one, both sash windows painted and stuck. Secondary double glazing over both did not help, and the space between that and the window panes could do with the network of cobwebs being cleared out. Sunday morning breakfast was a problem for the place, as the breakfast maid had not appeared. Mine Host therefore cooked the full English himself - which was very good and well done. Nothing apart from that such as cereal or bread/toast was on offer. I saw only the innkeeper - who may be running the place more or less single-handed - but he was friendly and helpful. The place is well sited as it is only a short walk to the Abbey/Cathedral area, or the Market Place and new shopping centre. It is quiet and in one of the many attractive old streets of the town. Bearing in mind what the place is and what it is not, I was generally satisfied with my stay and would go there again.
