Negative Reviews

negative:

Busy and cramped at times

Perhaps due to the popularity of the Britannia Inn, the property can get very busy at times - for some guests, uncomfortably so. The crowds of visitors can make the inn, particularly the bar area, seem cramped.

negative:

Food can be a bit pricey

Although many guests comment favourably on the value for money offered by the rooms, some do suggest that the cost of dining can be a little on the high side. The prices of drinks are also sometimes noted as being inflated.

negative:

Flakey Wi-Fi

Guests are regularly disappointed by the Wi-Fi at the Britannia Inn, with the general consensus appearing to be that the connection is flakey and intermittent. Also, it seems that you may be asked to access the Wi-Fi via Facebook, which guests found odd and insecure.
