10/10 Exceptional

The room was spacious and well appointed. The bed was the best I had slept in during my tour of the UK. The bathroom was luxurious and the products were in line with that assessment. The towels were plush and absorbent. The coffee service outside the room was convenient. Be prepared for stairs. And be prepared to ask other guests questions since staff are relatively obscure.
