Old George — Restaurant in Slough

Where can i start . The web photos looked great , modern stylish accommodation in a c16th coaching inn .A Pub with accommodation and breakfast , what more could you ask for Iwas going down for an over night whilst visiting local family .||the sat nav found the place easily enough , which is always a great start , good sized car park and beer garden which would have been nice if this hadnt been December.||But as I walked through the door I had assumed id walked into the public bar rather than reception , I was wrong there is no reception for the accommodation , no register , no sign in , no billing reciept provided. This is the first time in my life that I have ever been asked to pay for accommodation up front , I know its a while since ive stayed in London, but it hasnt changed that much !.||We were led through what could have been the cast of Eastenders including every type of life form human and other that one could imagine. through a bar decorated by Poundland and into the accommodation lobby , this was filled with sacks of rubbish from an earlier christmas party , one could only wonder what the chicken in a basket and 10 pints of Larger crowd that was .||The stairwell was amazingly quaint twisted . exposed beams , low ceillings and hidden steps, loverly and of course the Hoover sitting in its box at the top of the stairs at 4 in the afternoon , no time to put that away. ||We were let into the room and given the key on a novel green fob , the sort of thing you get in a christmas cracker , maybe it was one left over from that party. ||Once in , the room was small, the bathroom tiny, I think someone historically had got so angry with it or jumped from the cold water in the shower , warm took some time , that theyd punched and cracked the panelling in the shower cubicle. Now i have to give credit to the facilities technician for A, getting the loo in such a small space and B. having the bright idea of putting the loo roll holder on the wall so when you sit down its under your left leg, brilliant.||Now I only speak to the room that I and my partner had ( No 3 ) but level, appointed, spacious and quiet it wasnt, being right above the bar , clean it may have been, i darnt look under the bed .||So out we went to see family , came back and that is when we found out two things , 1. the room was not quiet, yes because the bar was below us and the football was on and 2. later when I can only assume was the staff in their quarters next door came upstairs and watched Tv all night . The second thing we found out the room was like a sauna , so both I and my partner had appalling nights sleep due to these facts , Im sorry for my choice of accommodation darling.||Well in the morning we got up and I thought id take one of the bags down to the car and find out where the continental breakfast was served , that being one of the things i believe all accommodation should offer , sorry personal bug bare. Well I opened the door and almost tripped over the boxed breakfasts in brown paper bags that had been put in front of the door overnight . I have no idea what time they had been put the there but the concept of warm yoghurt doesnt inspire, nor does a breakfast bar , a banana a freeze dried instant cooffee sachet ( decaf, in the morning ) and a danish that was so warm and floopy in its sealed cellofaine, that the whole thing could have come from the airline caterers or fell out of a salvadore dali painting , it was however , not I repeat not, a continental breakfast . ||To finish my tail of woe , at no point were we told what to do with the key , given any information about anything , including fire safety and from this point the best and safest thing for most to do is avoid this place unless you really really have to. I made a mistake and as said ,...

I really do not know where to start. Check in was fine, lady was nice enough and then it went down hill from there. Took to room 2. To be fair the bed was clean and that was it. ||Carpet, dirty. Bathroom was so old and dirty. No towel rail on the wall, looked like that had fell off ages ago. Toilet roll holder falling off the wall. A noisy macerator toilet that seemed to go off when it felt like it.||People could see in when the bus stopped directly outside the window, as there were no blinds. A bit embarrassing. ||Smelt horrible outside the room and into the hall way. Don't even want to think what it may smell like.||We had the 'breakfast'. 2 bags, 1 each, left outside the room containing: 1 x orange juice, 1 tea bag, 1 coffee, 1 milk, 1 Danish pastry, 1 cereal bar. Not what I would call continental!||So, we went across the road to the Ostrich Inn and had breakfast, very nice. We also had dinner there too, the night before, which was also very nice.||So all in all a horrible stay and would def not recommend. it could be really nice, old pub etc. But it needs so much doing to it to bring up to a standard which I feel they really are not...
