Perfect stay
Lovely accommodation with antique furniture including a four poster bed. The shower took a bit of adjusting and the tap didn't seem to have much water but the bed was comfortable, the staff were friendly and helpful, the room was quiet and the location was ideal for our purposes

Disappointed
Stayed in a family room. Room wasn't that clean and lots of broken bits. Sink was cracked no plug, bath was cracked so when in shower the water flowed in crack and didn't reach plug, laminate flooring was chipped and my 4yr old cut her toe on it, window frames had black mould growing and one window pane cracked. We were ground floor and windiws couldn't lock. Wasn't any hand soap to wash hands, looked like someone had trimmed beard next to mirror as loads of hairs on floor. Walls grubby and visible dust everywhere. The lady at check in was so lovely and fantastic with the kids but our room really let it down, we wouldn't go back. Nice central location.

Great location and friendly staff. Needs upgrading
Hotel is very dated and the conditions of furnishings, curtains and general cleanliness and condition of specifically the bathroom needs attended to ASAP! Walls need cleaned, repaired and painted. Ok for putting your head down but this hotel could be so much better with very little spent on it. Good location and friendly staff. Just invest a little to bring it up to scratch.
