Had a lovely stay here recently. Unfortunately the air conditioner wasn’t working and the ceiling fan was positioned so high it wasn’t effective. Would stay here again but maybe not in summer, when cooling is needed. Great clean bathroom and comfortable bed.

I loved the character of this beautiful old building I stayed in room 19 The bathroom was very spacious i liked how there were 3 separate cubicles for toilet, bathtub and shower Tvs and fans in both rooms was great as were the microwave,toaster,fridge and tea/ coffee making facilities Two separate rooms was a great option for my family I realise it might not be an option but i think it would be good if you could install a lift for the accommodation We checked in got ourselves organised and went off to a show on the way down i actually had a bad fall at the bottom of the staircase where the carpet changes near the hall stand I would love to be a guest in that room one day in the future but although the staircase is beautiful i couldnt manage walking up and down it again Otherwise we had an enjoyable stay

The bed in our room was extremely comfortable. The hotel is in a very handy location and we were able to walk to where we needed to go. What we didn't like was how dark the room was - very poor lighting, especially in the bathroom.
