### Newburgh Inn

8/10 Good

"Stayed solo for a week for local business and discussions. Accomodation basic but clean and suitable for someone who's main need is a bed/breakfast but probably not for anyone looking for a relax and hotel-main stay - though not really advertised as such. Beds harder generally but comfortable. Heater in room needed as it got cold but bedding more geared to heat. Owners/Employees very friendly and acommodating - probably the most commendable part. Willing to even sit down with me and chat as a solo traveller which was a lovely gesture. Really good at highlighting local sites and things to see/do which, while I didn't need, was laudable. The food is basic pub-grub but suitable for when you just need a meal and bed - there's better places around to eat out for sure but it won't cause any dramas. Topped up amenities (tea/coffee/bottled water) each day. Rooms cleaned to a standard that offers no complaint. Clearly still in development - lots of loose pallets and damaged furniture outside but off season and new management so again, makes sense. Would recommend as a local bolt-hole for visiting local family or if spending majority out of the hotel. Some work to do to make it the same worth price wise as other Hotels in the area but clear potential."
