This nearly 200 year old property has a charming look from the outside. We stayed 2 nights in the Harry Truman room on the ground floor. The first impression was pretty gloomy as the room has only got a small window, approx. at chest hight and opens directly onto Whitford Road, i.e. < 10 ft away and had a musty smell. Fortunately there was little traffic during the night and consquently didn't disturb us. The cleanliness of the ensuite toilet left to be desired, but the bed and furniture was clean. There is a small lobby with a pod coffee machine, fruit and cereal bars which is convenient, because the "fine dining" restaurant is cosed in the morning. The staff was very friendly, but all considered, I wouldn't stay there again.
