This average inn has three stories, two of rooms and one floor exclusively for the tavern. Like most buildings in Bloodhelm the bottom floor is river rock with the upper floor being wood. There is a small stables, which provides shelter and food for your traveling companion, but just that. The food here is passable, so is the ale, and sometimes there is entertainment to be had. The rooms are sparse; a bed, table, and chest. They are not individually heated, so during the winter it does get a little cold, (though it's hard to tell since at night this coastal city is always cold no matter the season). There is a single suite which the Innkeeper, Bazel Thunderstomp, charges three times the going rate for.
Brawls aren't unheard of in the Bull, but they aren't that common either. There are a lot of locals that come for ale, or meals if they are single men in from the country to work, but there is a lot of merchant traffic as well. Mercenaries some times come to try and hire on here and the lone adventure types come on occasion.
The Cock and Bull use to be a small home with a single rooster and bull living in the back yard, where the owner would rent out his loft for a little spending change. (He kept losing his chickens and the bull he let his neighbors borrow for a fee.) After a while he was making good money, thus he tore down his house and built the inn. He retired with a good nest egg and sold the business when he was a ripe age of 60.
