Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Roebuck Inn is frequently described as a cosy and convenient place to stay, especially for those needing access to major roads or visiting the crematorium nearby. Guests appreciate the spacious and clean rooms, which commonly feature expected amenities like a kettle, tea, biscuits, coffee, towels, and blackout curtains for a good night's sleep; free parking is a noted bonus. The on-site Nirvana Indian restaurant is well-regarded for its fine dining, though some guests have mentioned that rooms could use a makeover.

underwhelming stay.

straightforward processdripping tapslow wifi
the check-in process was pretty straightforward, i guess.
The bathroom was a real disappointment. the hot tap dripped constantly, even after i reported it. They clearly didn't fix it properly. also, the wifi was painfully slow despite a strong signal. I could barely load a webpage. it's 2024, come on.
