Loved by Rabble Hotel guests
"The small touches, such as, the fizz they had put in our room for our wedding anniversary and the coffee machine were fabulous!"
"From the moment we stepped into the Rabble we was made to feel welcome, we arrived early but was allowed to book in and leave our cases so we could go about our business."
"For what was effectively a room above a pub, what it lacked in finesse it more than made up for with the following: big fluffy white towels, hairdryer straighteners, big bed & coffee machine."
