Comfortable room

The property seemed as if it was in the early stages of develo[ment so the price was high for the conditions.

The bed was quite comfortable and wi-fi was good

Where to start… this place is located on a very busy road which was noisy and difficult to cross. When we arrived the man behind the bar explained the owner was absent due to a family emergency and he and his partner were covering for him and had no relevant experience. Our room was clean and tidy but the noise from the road outside was very loud. We had walked 7 miles from Lenham to Chilham on a hot day so were very disappointed to find the shower didn’t work - the water was either scalding or stone cold. The man from reception stood in the bathroom for 3 - 4 minutes to get a bearable water temperature but by the time he’d left the room it was stone cold again - this is clearly dangerous. In addition the towel rail in the bathroom fell off the wall onto my foot and the toilet did not flush properly. Before we left to return to Chilham to find some dinner (having established on-line there was nowhere else to stay in the village) we were asked what we wanted for breakfast and what time we wanted breakfast. When we returned from dinner we were asked if we would mind having breakfast half an hour later so another pair staying at the hotel could eat first. We said yes if they could offer us a working shower in the morning. They said we could use the shower in their room! The shower in our room failed to work again in the morning but we preferred to stay unwashed. We left after breakfast - we went to drop the key at reception but the man there told us we would need it to let ourselves out the front door, all without leaving his seat and continuing his phone call - rude!

Hosts were excellent. Could not be more helpful or friendly. Bed was comfortable and had best sleep for a long time

Nothing all was how I like it

The room was spacious and clean. The owners were lovely from our first foot in the door to the last. They really did everything for us and we appreciate it. The car park was really handy too! The bed was really comfy too.

Tony and Sarah are brilliant hosts. Our room was a very comfortable haven to rest and relax in after busy days. Both Sarah and Tony gave us really good tips about the train to Canterbury and where to eat locally.

Sarah the owner was absolutely lovely 😁

The noise from the road and bathroom was a little tired

I was on the Pilgrim way from Winchester to Canterbury an thus the "The Old Alma Inn" was an ideal overnight-stop for me in Chilham, easy to find on the way, but on a very busy traffic road. But during the night there was not much traffic and due to the fact that I got a nice room towards the back-garden, it was quiet and I slept well. Anthony made a delicious and very tasty English breakfast. Brian made a very nice and friendly welcoming at my arrival and introduced me to the house. So did Anthony the other morning when he made and served a tasty breakfast.

Everything was fine an in fact there is nothing real negativ to tell about. The only disappointing thing is that the house is directly located at a busy street and it is difficult and dangerous to traverse to road but the pedestrian path is on the other side ... so be careful when you cross over !
