A great location. By the train station but not noisy. As well as a sizeable beer garden, there was a good sized, covered over part as well. There was a karaoke night which was great , with people having a lovely time - good and bad singing, but who cares and also an Irish music night the following evening, so all good.

The room was on the ground floor, which I liked but it was not a very well lit room and lacked a rug on the floor.

Location ideal. Breakfast was not available but there is a cafe opposite which opens at 8am. Spacious room. Comfortable bed. Spotless shower room.

Couldn't open window so it was rather warm. Guest entrance (after pub closed) very difficult to find in dark. For the benefit of future guests, you need to take the road to the left of the pub (Gordon Road). Go past houses on right, then small private car park. then there is the driveway to the pub car park. Go down this driveway to the car park. Go across the car park to far corner. Go through gate into pub garden. Go across pub garden. Straight ahead is door to the bar (when open). On you left is the guest entrance. You should have been given a separate key for this door.

Brilliant! Loved staying here and would happily return. Huge room (could sleep 5 with the extra sofa bed and trundle) but set up for me as a single occupant of the room (i.e. one set of towels and refreshments) which was a welcoming touch that's been overlooked by more luxury expensive establishments - thank you. No breakfast but plenty of places to eat nearby. Big bath and good shower. Very comfortable. I slept very well.

If you're looking for 5-star perfection, this isn't the place for you. But if you want relaxed and relaxing comfort definitely stay here.

Big room for three to stay in. Building had lots of character because it was Victorian period. Beer garden in the back was large and lovely. Location right by the train station was very practical.

Old plumbing. As there was no breakfast available, the room would benefit mini-fridge.

The staff were very helpful,in fact I had booked and paid for 3 rooms for the incorrect day (24 -25th Jul. ) they said there was a room available 23-24th July which I took which I now realise I Paid in excess of $600 if possible I would very grateful if I could get some of that payment paid back into my account. The error occurred because I didn’t get confirmation back when making the bookings the first two attempts as is normal. Kind regards Phil Jones

Great location for what I needed. Train station 2 mins walk. Into Brighton within 10 mins. Accommodation was good and staff very friendly. Would use again if staying up that way in the future.

Access into car park is a bit tight so tuck your mirrors is.

Hotel was in very good location in Shoreham, with free private parking spaces, which is always a huge bonus for any hotel. Near local shops and walking distance to train station/public transport. Lovely, comfortable, clean big family room. Owner and staff very friendly and welcoming. (pet dogs very friendly too ;) ) Bar food was great, good choice on menu and value for money and pub has regular weekly entertainment on. Would definitely book and enjoy staying again in future

Minor issue with lack of communication or explanation on how to access rooms after pub closing time at time of arrival (access to hotel situated around back of pub and block of shops through beer garden to private locked side door) but luckily staff were available at time to help and show us were to go. However no other issues or concerns meet.

Location and size of room

The Inn advertised rooms for £60. I was annoyed to have paid £105! I also didn't know parking was available and paid in the station carpark.
