The cleaning staff were polite and helpful. A simple room with minimal amenities. Clean and comfortable.

Just spoiled by the constant passing and repassing & accelerating of the same vehicle with a loud exhaust causing noise pollution and this continued until midnight. I must stress that this was not the fault of the residence nevertheless bad enough to be a nuisance. It should also be said that this is budget priced accommodation.

the overall stay was ok. There were a few teething problems with the electrics (lighting) and toilet door jamming. we were moved to another room then issues again with electrics (lighting and heating) but it got sorted. The staff were on hand to sort things for us and were really helpful. The music below made it hard to sleep as it played until 01.30am and the chimes from the clock in the square didnt help. The room was clean and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. it is only bed and not breakfast. How ever you can buy your breakfast in the pub on a morning we chose to go out for it. Be sure to take items like shower gels shampoo and conditioner hairdryer etc as these are not supplied. you are supplied with a small bar of soap. it was an ok experience i guess staying above a pub has pros and cons and each individual has there own preference. its just not for me. 🙁 try for yourself and then decide 🙂👍

Lovely hotel, bright clean spotless bedroom and bathroom.. pristine white fresh bedding, only 1 pillow each, but easily rectified by simply asking for a second. Love the fact, there was a double plug on both sides of the bed, something you don't get in most hotels and definitely not in Premier Inn or Travel Lodge.. and again fantastic there was as standard a fan in the room. The double waterfall shower was very powerful. The amenities tray, was well stocked and proper sized mugs not a cup that holds 2 mouthfuls. I seriously could not fault our stay here, so much so we have booked an extra night. All staff have been friendly and courteous.. Highly recommended 👌

Just what we needed for our visit to Millom. We had an issue in the morning as had no water, but it was fixed as soon as we reported it.

The hotel was ideal for my work commitments the following day. The price I paid was reflected in the facilities provided. Great staff and nice bar/ restaurant with really good prices.

The Bear is close to the railway station and the rooms are basic but comfortable. Currently the property does not serve food and during my stay there were no restaurants open in the area. There are takeaways. There might be a kitchen available to guests but I didn't find it.

I was very happy with my room! It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Unfortunately the walls are very thin and l could hear the people next door talking as if they were in the same room, so even though the bed/bedding was very clean and comfortable l did not get any sleep, l could even hear a conversation someone was having on a phone. The property is advertised as a B&B but they do not do breakfasts. I would definitely stay again if the price was reduced slightly to accommodate not doing breakfast.
