We had a pleasant stay at The Murray Arms, appreciating the lovely and clean rooms along with the convenience of self check-in. However, the bathroom light and fan issue was quite bothersome, particularly during nighttime visits. While the breakfast was surprisingly good, there is definitely room for improvement in the overall guest experience.

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The steak night was exceptional, and I found the dinner to be remarkable both in quality and value for money. However, the owner's strict curfew policy was quite frustrating, especially during a wedding stay. Overall, the accommodations were pleasant, but a more relaxed approach would have made the experience perfect.
