The hotel and rooms looked nothing like the pictures advertised, which suggest a charming pub by a harbour. Instead, we were taken through a scruffy conservatory and through back-of-house areas, which set the tone for the stay. The rooms themselves were dated and untidy, and not somewhere I would choose to take my partner. We paid for two double rooms with private bathrooms, however one of the rooms had the bathroom located across the hallway, which felt misleading. On the positive side, the staff were friendly and polite. The accommodation was adequate for a single night while working away, but had this been a leisure stay, we would have chosen to stay elsewhere.

Omg the whole experience here was fabulous, Summer and Ebony the 2 female staff were wonderful. Summer would go above and beyond and nothing was too much for her. She had a wonderful sweet funny aura about that was so refreshing. Later we met Kieran the manager he was wonderful so helpful and very funny even though he was unwell with flue nothing was to much. Such a wonderful place to stay, very clean and the food was amazing too. Dog friendly and loads of treats a for the dog available and we even got a doggy pack. The area was wonderful loads to see and lovely walks for the dog. Definitely stay again we can highly recommend. Thank you to all at Fish on the Quay for making our stay so enjoyable and memorable !!

The staff are very nice I have no complaints at all about them at all, but the hotel isn’t very clean.When you arrive you are shown to your room through the area next to the kitchen the smell of dirty oil/fat was very off putting. I did pay for breakfast when we booked but I was so put off by the smell and cleanliness of the kitchen we left before any staff even arrived to cook the breakfast. Room was nice and cosy but bathroom wasn’t clean around the outside of the shower cubicle I understand that it’s an old building but a bit of bleach would have got that off.

Had to wait 10 mins to check in as no staff were available. No towels in room assured they would be provided but still had to ask for them again at 22:30 when we got back to our room. Went down for breakfast at 9:00am, no staff. Waited until 9:10 only to be told that by the cleaner there were no staff again. Already paid for breakfast. NOT HAPPY!
