    Just a comment really; the shower took a while to get the temperature set right, I felt guilty using too much water when I was trying to adjust it, but I got it right in the end.

    Cosy comfortable bed; plenty of storage space for 'stuff'; Excellent when it came to catering for my gluten free needs. The Waverley has a lovely homely feel about it, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

    The tiny bedroom and shower room - too small. The WC was almost impossible to sit on - especially for tall people.

    Breakfast and service was very good.

    Slightly picky, but my shower was a struggle to get the temperature set and wasn't very powerful, perhaps for couples the room size could be a tad on the small size but as a solo stay it was fine.

    Great location, connections to various areas around the island. Welcoming staff and a fantastic pub. Would definitely return!

    The furniture in the room.

    Breakfast was good and well presented. Staff very pleasant. Unsure about how things worked as description done very quickly. Room clean and spacious. Furniture rather old and difficult to shut drawers. Pub was shut on Monday although breakfast was served. We were told about this when we arrived. There was music on in a marquee on one night which was good.

    the moment we arrives in the accommodation, Tim warmly welcomed us and showed us our room. gave us a good orientation about the accommodation and even helped us to navigate the area. Very nice place and reasonable for its price. we miss the open mic, hope we could even join some other time. also, they allow us to check in early and leave of bags so we could roam around the place without hassle.

    We were given a very warm welcome by Rachel, and very pleasantly surprised when she offered us an upgrade of our room, which included a bath. Having walked a long section of the coast path, much of it extremely muddy, this was greatly appreciated. We decided to eat in the pub - extensive menu, a lot homemade, and we were not disappointed. Very reasonably priced, good portions and well presented. Pub food presented really well. Room was comfy and well catered for with plentiful supplies, including fresh milk for tea and coffee available. Great breakfast cooked to order, and nothing was too much trouble. We really enjoyed our stay, it was perfect for a one night stop over whilst walking the coast path. We will happily return. Thankyou very much Tim, Julie, Rachel and the rest of the team.

    A bit of traffic noise in the morning as close to a mini roundabout but it did not bother me.

    Good location for the work I was doing and an excellent location if touring the Island as very close to Carisbroke castle and pretty much in the middle of the island. Victorian building with good size rooms, a quirky staircase and a nice bar with an open fire. Comfortable bed, loads of towels provided with spares always available, fresh milk in a fridge for guests, excellent home cooked food, good choice for breakfast and good coffee. Friendly, family run, wound happily go back for a holiday!

    Warm welcome from the staff, who couldn't do enough to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Spotlessly clean rooms, delicious breakfast, excellent beer and homecooked food. Wish it was my local! This is an old traditional pub on a busy road, so there is some traffic noise and some of the furnishings are a little worn, but if you prefer character over a bland identikit hotel chain, then you won't go wrong staying at the Waverley Inn.

    The shower. It was made well clear that the water pressure was not great so we weren't misinformed. However it is really old and it was a real struggle to get the valve to work switching from bath to shower. I didn't have the strength to do it at all, I had to call my husband each time which was frustrating. It was also difficult to get the temperature right. All in all we got clean, it was functional and bearable but it wasn't a pleasure after a long days walk.

    Lovely stay, the host/pub landlord was very hospitable, nothing seemed like too much trouble and he was keen that we enjoyed our stay. we felt very welcome. The guest spaces were a bit quirky, a bit tired and old but clean and very well COVID proofed. It was our first stay anywhere since the pandemic began and we felt safe and protected in the accommodation. On arrival the room was cold but the stand alone heaters worked extremely well in the bedroom when we turned them up. The huge bathroom was a little difficult to keep warm though. We were doing a long distance walk so we were not dressed for anywhere fancy and there was potential for us to get wet and muddy, with this in mind the place was perfect, we would not have felt uncomfortable if we had turned up bedraggled as you would in a smart hotel. We are vegetarian and we felt very well catered for. They were very flexible when it came to the food. Also we left too early each morning to make breakfast so they made us sandwiches to take with us which we thought was a kind touch. The pub itself was old school. A 'proper pub' not a chain or even brewery owned. Nothing fancy pants or designed. Full of locals, dogs, laughter, food, beer, mismatched tables and a genuinely warm atmosphere created by a cross section of people. If you were on your own, you wouldn't be left lonely, someone would talk to you for sure.
