The breakfast was made fresh every day. It is simple but tasty, there’s fruit available at all times you can grab for free. The staff is the friendliest on earth, the room was nice and clean, the hotel itself has a lot of character, each room is named after an English author and they place a book of your author in the room. Location was good, about 15 minutes away from the Arch and all the activities we went to. This city is worth exploring and I will be coming back to stay here in the Cheshire again! Oh. And it’s great to know the place is pet friendly.

This was the second time we stayed here. 1st time, breakfast great. This time, 5 night stay and only day with good, fresh food was the last day, Sunday. The Fox and Hound was the bright spot in this place, though we paid for the food like a normal restaurant. Must ask for room cleaning service, and we did not. Bed mattress sink in middle, very uncomfortable.
