Tiny uncomfortable beds. Tiny sink, couldn't fit kettle in to make a brew. Not serviced all week, one towel one bog roll... . Staircase to room dangerously steep and no turning space at top,how it passed building regs I don't know. Television was tiny but it didn't matter couldn't get it to work. Avoid this place.

You get what you pay for. We paid less than £50 at very short notice to stay here. It was clean and quiet and perfectly well equipped. Lovely and warm room, the bed was very comfy and the shower was absolutely perfect. We received regular communication and very clear and precise instructions on how to get into the building and then the room. Everything was exactly as described and this was a completely hassle free way to start a weekend. I understand that others will find it difficult that there is no personal welcome, but having read the reviews we were well aware of what to expect and had no issue at all with it. This business deserves to do well, they're providing an affordable service with the minimum of fuss and we will definitely come back in the future.

This hotel looked lovely and quaint on the out side. But was very grubby and dusty in rooms with beetles like insects walking across grubby floors. Toilet didn?t flush no reception after three o?clock. Tried calling emergency number 26 times with no response absolutely awful experience never return

Booked 2 rooms at this hotels with booking.com. Payment was on arrival. Received message the day before saying the pub was closed and the no food was being served. Basically everything was closed. They then tried to take payment for the rooms so messaged then and tried to call them. No reply. Then received a message from booking.com to say our rooms had been cancelled no reason nothing. Had to find another hotel and pay a lot more money.

I booked a room in the Golden Lion Hotel in Middlewich. No such place exists ! There is a building in the same location named ?The Middlewich Taphouse?. It would have been good to know. There appear to be no staff whatsoever at the property. I arrived at around 15.45, wondering what to do, I eventually received a text with my room number and the code for the main door at around 16.20. The room was dingy, with little light and only a very hard chair to sit on. But what really troubled me was that the room door had a lock that could very easily be unlocked from the outside with just a coin, anyone could get in through the night.

Apparently the Golden Lion Pub had been closed for almost a year before I made my booking but they only advised me a couple of weeks before my arrival date.Most importantly they deliberately omitted to make it clear to me that this meant that Guests would only be able to access the rooms via a metal fire escape around the side of the building.It is only when we received the check in information late in the afternoon on the arrival date that we realised the mistake we had made in trusting this Business.Although our booking was for 2 nights, we reluctantly stayed the first night, as it was too late to find another accomodation for that night but refused to stay the next night.If you find yourself in the same predicament be warned that you are unlikely to get any satisfaction in the way of Customer Service because most of the time there is no one answering the phone.Looking at some of the reviews it would appear that some People may have not have the same dreadful experience but if you check the date that they stayed most of these reviews were from the period that the Pub was fully operational and access to the rooms was via the Pub entrance.Obviously my advice to all prospective Vacationers is to avoid this place like the plague.I did request a refund for the unused second nights accomodation but as you might imagine if you make a booking via any of the booking sites, if the business has no Reception or Customer Care facilities and doesn't answer the phone then you just have to accept that you made a terrible mistake and hope that the booking sites remove these false descriptions from their sites asap to avoid any further disappointments.

Stayed in room 2 and cannot fault the accommodation. Great shower and double bed plus single. Downstairs is closed for renovation which may be a good thing as there was no noise. Great price and no complaints. Would book again. Can't comment on service as all self check in but drinks and kettle provided as well as a decent sized TV on the wall.

If it were possible I would give 0 stars. Booking in was over the phone and awkward. Room was basic but appeared OK for the price. Just after midnight water started pouring into the room through an electrical fitting in the ceiling and then the power blew. Tried several times to phone the contact number without success. The water eventually stopped but with a soaking floor and no power I ended up sleeping in my car. To this day, neither my daughter (who made the booking nor I have received any response to numerous calls and emails. Management has truly gone to ground.

1. The booking app cancelled the room- managed to rebook with the hotel - booking in was a nightmare involving codes and needing online. Then in the middle of the night the ceiling started leaking serious amounts of water all the electrics went ?phut? could I contact anyone - oh no - nobody answering the phone but decided too dangerous to stay in the room - so slept in the car. All subsequent attempts to get contact and a refund totally impossible. Do.not.go.to.this.hotel.seriously.bad.idea Tried to contact them by email by phone by telepathy all failed. I?d give a score of -10 if I could - but worst I could do was 1 star.

Excellent room for an overnight stay but very cold as heating was off overnight and only a thin summer duvet was provided and no blankets. Very clean!

Very basic accommodation only, but that is clear on the details. Not at all bad for the price. Breakfast from the van in the car park was pretty good.
