Poor quality.
Had to pay extra for parking, lift not working, went use pool but told would cost extra and would have to pay twice, once for today and again in the morning. The bed and pillow were very hard and the breakfast was over cooked and poor quality.

Great location
It was for anevent in the town. The room was tucked away in the back but quiet. Quite a few stairs and narrow corridors but no top difficult to locate. Checkin was very easy and they allowed us access to the room 2 hours earlier that scheduled check in. The room was a good size with generous bed, tea, coffee facilities and a tv. The bed was comfortable although personally I would have liked a softer pillow.

Horrific - would not recommend under any circumsta
Terrible stay - So over priced and unclean. There was a half eaten scotch egg in my fridge. Decor etc is date. The maid clearly drank one of my bottles of water and left the bottle there as if it was full genuinely a shocking experience.

Past its prime
Excellent service from Suzanne on reception. The hotel lobby and lounge were beautiful - but the room was tiny with a noisy a/c duct outside the window and the bed/pillows were terrible.

4/10 Fair

Wouldn't stay again.
Was put in a room that had a toilet separate from the bathroom, not a problem apart from the pipes singing and knocking for ten minutes after every flush. The tap only fed cold water. I asked to switch rooms and was put on the very top floor. The room was very basic and dated. Tv didn't work well, neither did the heating. Wasn't particularly happy about the £5 a night charge for parking on top of the room rate.
