The Inn was a challenge to find, especially in the rain. It was clean. We got checked in. We were only staying one night. It served the purpose. It certainly isn't luxury, it was functional.

I probably wouldn't stay again because it was a little on the aprse side for amenities.

It's clean, but you get what you pay for.

The staff were friendly and helpful, the parking is handy and the self access in and out is convenient. However, there were some bad points:

1) The ceiling and wall above the shower was mouldy.
2) The customers from the pub below were often right outside the window, and were very loud until around 2315, after the pub had shut and it was time for them to go.
3) The overbed lamp was broken.
4) The carpet and wallpaper were very old, and the wall by the bed was superficially damaged.
5) No shower gel or shampoo provided. A small bar of soap was provided though.
6) There is a kettle, but no microwave or mini fridge.

In summary:

Cheap and clean. No thrills, no spills. Ideal for a one night stay, however wouldn't recommend for longer.

Dirt box

I entered my room to find a pile of cut toe nails next to the bed. The landlady moved me swiftly but the next room wasn’t much cleaner and there was somebody in the house next door screaming and shouting at 4am the next morning. Luckily it was only for 1 night.

Very comforable beds!

Perfect stop for a Uni Open Day at Sutton Bonington!
Very comfortable room, and beds.
Very friendly and helpful staff (who found me a hairdryer which I had forgotten)
It's not a modern Travelodge type of room, but was absolutely perfect for us. Numerous takeaways available around the corner. We would def stay here again!

These rooms are relatively cheap but otherwise dire. Good parking & close to the airport. Otherwise awful, very cold room and rubbish bathroom. Bed was comfortable and easy access for getting in and leaving. We wouldn’t book it again.

Fairly decent for the price of rooms. Showering can be tricky as the hot/cold stream is via a single handle - its very much trial and error.
Top floor is private residency and could benefit from new or thicker carpets. You hear all footfalls, stomping around and conversations.
Still ideal for short work related trips.

This the barest, most basic B & not B I've ever stayed in.

Everything - from the surly but efficient 14-year-old who constituted the entire staff, to to the room, its furnishings, the \"Fire Safety\" doors made of recycled carboard,and the blocked 'Fire Exit' - was the cheapest, nastiest possible. It felt like stepping back into the 1960s..

This is convenient for East Midlands airport and Donington Park circuit. Having parking available is great too, if it's available. It's a bar and the car park seems to be full a lot, so expect to have to park on the road. The rooms are basic, very basic. Rooms have thin walls and you hear people opening and closing doors as well as drunks who seem to roam. The bathrooms, like the rest, are basic. They're small and the shower is simply a single lever without separate control of flow and temperature. The step out of the shower is a foot off of the ground and unsafe getting out with wet feet. No toiletries except a small round of soap is provided. There's nowhere to hang or place anything either.

The bedroom drawers are dirty, and the quilt barely covers the top of the bed, so being covered is a skill. Pillows are from the last decade. Once again facilities you'd expect are absent, such as teaspoons.

Access is via an unlit fire escape stairs which can be dangerous in the dark.

I've seen reviews giving 10/10, which I have to question the authenticity of, as the only way you could rate this place a 10 is if you were being houses here by the council having been homeless for years beforehand.

The lady who showed me the room was really friendly, great customer service thank you. It was such a shame the room wasn’t clean, the walls were thin & having to leave in the morning via the fire escape because the pub wasn’t open was lethal in my work heels 😂 I’ve stayed in a lot of different rooms over the years but I’m really sorry I wouldn’t recommend this one until the mould around the windows has been removed & the room & bathroom has a deep clean (maybe even a lick of paint), it would make a huge difference.

Not much to like about this so called hotel. Linited parking. Shower and how it was operated is something out of the Arc. Tv was on top of the wardrobe and the furthest you could get away from my bed.
Toiletries were virtually non exsistent, apart from a small bar of soap. The sink was as big as my hand. Avoid staying there on Saturday, as you will not get much sleep, as it was noisy from an event, either downstairs or next door.

Basic but reasonable for the price.

Basic small room at the back of the pub, bed was comfy, though the duvet felt a little damp. reasonable for the £42 price in my eyes. none of the photos was the room I stayed in. Its on the take off route for the airport, but that didnt stop me sleeping.

Unpleasant experience

We booked a room here as we had an early flight from East Midlands. The room itself was ok, clean and comfortable, cheap and cheerful.
We wanted an early night but the noise from the bar downstairs kept us awake until quite late. Just as I fell asleep there was loud banging on the floor of the room above which woke me up. As all the guest rooms are on one floor I can only assume this was the owner or live in staff. This happened two or three times, maybe I was snoring and this upset them?
Then at 2.00am we were awoken by an almighty argument going on in the corridor outside our room. It sounded as if another guest had had difficulty getting into their room. We were shocked and upset by the foul language and threats being shouted by the owner, telling the guest that \"they had better not still be here when they get up\".
We were unable to get back to sleep after this and were glad to leave a few hours later.
I've never encountered such unprofessional behaviour before and would never use this place again.

I stayed at the Coach House to break up a long journey. The single room was nice and clean and just right for what I wanted. It is close to the flight path but I didn't hear any planes after 9.30ish. It is great value for money and the girl who checked me in was nice and friendly. It's also just off the motorway so perfect for a pit stop.

There's nothing good about this property. We struggled to even bath; no shower gel which we have to drive 7-8 minutes to buy a shower gel for the amount of money I've paid.
When i asked the receptionist for a shower gel and toilet roll, he ended to give me used and almost nothing inside the bottle.

Simple and basic but less expensive than many.

Stayed here to attend a party at Kegworth Village Hall - which was close. It’s not expensive and quite basic. No breakfast and nothing on the village on a Sunday. So bring your own.

The staff is lovely and accommodating. The property, however, not great, but I guess you get what you pay for. I wasn’t looking for anything fancy as I only needed to stay there for a few hours before my flight so I wanted something cheap. I didn’t have high expectations considering the price, but it wasn’t great. Everything is so old and has a funny smell; you can hear what’s happening in other rooms like the toilet flush or the TV, not great when you’re trying to get some sleep. It is in big need of a refurbishment.
On the other side, the property has a car park - Lee (property owner) was very nice and allowed me to leave my car there for the day, my return flight being on the same day. The lady at the bar/reception was very nice and polite.

A “cool” place to rest.

What I think the most important thing is to note, this is a coach house, a guest house, not a chain hotel so expectations must be a bit different.
Not only do you pay a lot less, but as a result you are going to get a lot less, so you must expect a lot less.

That said the room itself was lovely, it looked newly refurbished and very very well presented.
Personally as a slightly more heavier set gentleman, I found the mattress a little bit too thin and the chairs quite uncomfortable after a while sitting at the small dresser to do some work, but that was probably a personal preference.

I enjoyed the appearance of the room as I said, but the temperature was a little bit of a problem, the room didn’t stay warm for long and the heating device in the room seemed to switch off at random intervals and not want to turn back on very soon after.

With a very small bathroom, and the room overall really only suited for short term occupancy I would say it did the job for an overnight stay as the journey continued, as a coach room would do. However, I couldn’t recommend it for a longer stay.

But for a quick overnight halt, good value for money and place to put your head.
Just bring a hot water bottle!
