“The immediate proximity to the Royal Shakespeare Theatre is a significant draw, especially with the added benefit of a genuinely accommodating owner who facilitated late check-ins and even personal access to the pub after theatre hours. I appreciated the sense of value here, finding the beds surprisingly comfortable and the basic amenities, like a good hot shower, sufficient for a restful stay. The pub below itself is a lively spot, though I understand it could mean noise for those seeking absolute quiet.”
