Found it quite suitable for a night or two, but not a long stay, convenient for a quick stop over & near town!

Any port in a storm, ok for a quick overnight stay. Rooms very basic. Exit and entry via metal staircase, wife felt they were unsafe. Staff friendly enough. Didn’t do any food.

The pub is quite basic but clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. The main downside, especially as we were in one of the front bedrooms, was the traffic noise.

It is tired, desperately in need of decorating and updating. Very basic. There appeared to be hairs in one of the beds. Extremely hot despite fans being provided, can’t imagine what it would be like in the height of summer. Appreciated there being coffee and tea making facilities, although kettle looked pretty grotty. Not somewhere we’d choose to stay again.

Very basic room with shared bathroom. Noisy as room was right above the busy pub and overlooking a main road with lots of heavy goods vehicles passing by. Didn't get much sleep.

Whitelion stay over hotel
We arrived 930pm. Check in was done by bar staff very friendly took us a fan up as it was so hot. Showed us the ways in and out. Room was very neat and clean. Decorated fine. Toilet near by. Would definitely stay here again. Rooms were on top of a pub but we heard very little noise. Apart from outside traffic. Free on road parking right outside. Around 10 spaces.

Never again.
Arrived at 2.30 pm. Pub not opened until 4.00 pm.
Nasty stain on landing carpet.
Bed not nice to sleep on, felt a spring in my back.
We left at 5.30, unable to sleep on the beds.
Not a good stay. Never again.
