Small hotels or pubs (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inns

I believe this is a double definition.

'small hotels' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'pubs' is the second definition.
(an inn is a type of pub)

(Other definitions for inns that I've seen before include "Public houses" , "King's ..., for the legal eagles" , "Country taverns" , "Old-time hostelries" , "Old hostelries or pubs" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
