Mixed bag this one but in a nice way. Basic rooms with obvious signs of refurbishment but a dated bathroom (but had a new electric shower) and older furniture. That said the room was warm, comfy and I slept well. The shower didnt work very well and wouldnt maintain pressure or temperature (Rm5) The welcome from the owner was super friendly as you would expect from a small hotel / pub. Food was lovely and well priced. Nice hotel for a short stay

Got a great deal for a 1 night stay. On arrival we found the staff were friendly and the room was tidy and clean. It was a Saturday night and the place was very busy/lively and the room was far enough away that it was quiet for a night's rest. Enjoyed cooked breakfast in the morning. A substantial fry was on offer with plenty of coffee and orange juice. We had an enjoyable stay and would definitely recommend!

Upon arrival, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The owner treated us like visiting friends- we felt very welcome! The accommodations were superb: a comfy bed, plenty of space, tea and coffee in the room, large bathroom with a very nice tub! Everything was clean and comfortable. The staff answered all questions, were able to make helpful recommendations, and showed a genuine interest in our having a wonderful vacation!

Staff very accommodating, changed my room when the amenities were not working. Although the original room I book was not given to me, some staff very good a few younger girls didn't even know how to book in a guess so was a bit difficult, was given the wrong information on breakfast even though I was asked to fill in a breakfast firm it was not given to the cooks. My second room was great, very spacious, newer and didn't have a musty smell. No holes it make up stains on the towels as the previous room, just felt better value for money. I would say it's a good place to stay if you get the right room. Breakfast was quick and excellent. The lady in charge was lovely

Staff was very friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable and even lent us chairs to attend a music festival in Omagh. I appreciate getting the disability room after injuring my ankle, however, walking up the stairs to get to it was difficult.
