Did the trick

Did the job for the reasonable price tag, bed was clean and comfortable and Durham centre a nice walk away from the property. We would consider staying again if on a budget.

Very good for its price.

Spacious room, easy access, helpful staff. Obviously no frills and basic accommodation, but well worth it for the price. Excellent soundproofing from the bar (less so from the corridor).

Relentlous music

The room was pleasant but being in a pub meant that the music droned on until 11.30 and the door was continually slamming and vibrating the room.
