Great central location, very friendly and helpful staff, very clean facilities, great private shower room.
Even with the heating on, the room was a bit cold

The pub is down a quiet side street less than a 5 minute walk from the market square and under 10 minutes from the train station. Lovely rooms, comfortable single bed. Own toilet and shower, not en suite. Host was very friendly and gave good instructions on how to get back in outside of opening times. Would happily stay here again.
At my age, an en suite toilet is always useful 😀.

The staff! Without a doubt! Nothing was too much for this well oiled machine that cracked out great food from that little kitchen or seeing me to my cosy room… which was just wonderful (never had a corridor in a room), that is my take away! Dinner was tasty, and have no complaints about the wait time… I will stay here again, when I’m next in Boston!
The walk from the railway station at night was a little unsettling… dimly lit roads and pedestrian walkways that felt unwelcoming… this is no fault of the hotel, but it ment that when I was in, I was in for the night!

The staff were very friendly, room was freshly decorated and the bed was comfortable.
Complimentary bottled water was very welcome. I had my own dedicated bathroom which was very clean and warm.
The bathroom was across the hall but only a very minor gripe considering the age of the building and price for the night.

Great location and value for money. Great to have bar and food below. easy access in and out after trading hours. Staff very friendly and helpful. Single bed comfortable.
Only complaint was the radiator in room 4 even at highest level was lukewarm and it was extremely cold outside, so room was cold all night. that radiator needs bleeding or looking at to ensure the room heats up. hopefully an easy fix.
Bathroom was separate which was not perfect but you had your own one just across the hall so not the end of the world. no milk for tea/coffee in the morning unless I missed it or it was mentioned but forgot.

Good value for money, staff couldn't have been more helpful and welcoming, not far from centre of town, would definitely stay again if in Boston
The rooms are upstairs, so anyone with mobility issues might have a slight problem

Walking distance to the centre.
Continual loud vibrating music until 1 am in the morning from pub in room below plus woman screaming and swearing in street at 1 am. Music should have stopped at 11 am! Very unfair on neighbours too. Not instructed properly about exit in the morning. Ended up going out by fire escape. We weren’t given enough info generally.

Interesting hidden location. Nice rock n roll room in the bar, and good beer. The street was quiet during the night.
Could do with a note on the help sheet saying guest leave by the fire exit to go in and out after hours and in the morning when I went for breakfast and a note on the fire exit say guest use this entrance as I set off the alarm looking for the way out in the bar in the morning. Sorry.

Old style traditional pub with memories of many a misspent youth. Very spacious rooms with a large comfy bed and plenty of hot water. Staff welcoming.
Rooms not sound proof and mine was above some very excitable punters. Area is very run down and parking difficult. Wi-Fi not great.

Good location. Good value. Great music on the Saturday night.
Nothing really. WiFi code in the room wasn't the one to use, right one is in the corridor.

Excellent accommodation. Welcoming hosts. Room had everything I required for my one-night stay. It is likely I will stay here again next time work requires me to stay over in Boston.
Steep staircase giving access to guest rooms from pub,, but this would not affect most people more mobile than I am.

We are just home from a fabulous stay at The Carp. Room was cosy and well presented. The staff were great, especially Adi, and made us feel relaxed. The pub downstairs was great and the locals made us feel very welcome. Live music on the Saturday night was a very pleasant surprise. A hidden gem. Will definitely be returning.
Nothing.

There was one room . No one was on the premises. I left in the morning via the fire escape. It felt terribly unsafe as a single woman. An unstaffed single room should not be on your site

I spoke with the manager on the phone who was very, polite, friendly and helpful.
As two single ladies staying for a fun night in a new town. We did not feel safe in the area.
we did not even stay at the property because of this. There was no parking with the property. We did not feel safe walking around the area.
I hate to judge on first impressions but that is exactly what we did.
The local people we saw around the property mad us feel unsafe.

Cannot fault a single thing. Staff were very friendly. Rooms were lovely and clean. Bathroom was spotless. Lovely atmosphere down in the bar aswell.
Great value for money and just overall a pleasant experience. Definitely staying here again.
