I stayed on a Saturday night. The decor is a little dated but the room was very comfy and clean. The breakfast was great and the lady that served us was hilarious. I would definitely stay here again. Just to bear in mind that there are no lifts so you would need to be able to deal with stairs if you stay here.

6/10 Good

Due to being so cold through night, we didnt sleep until the bedroom heated and consequently, being so tired, we missed breakfast. This was a special time for us... But sadly it was ruined by the room being so cold. We were booked for Saturday night so wanted to cancel, but were told it was too late. So it proved to be so expensive and a disappointment. We are very elderly and I feel we were badly let down. Having said that we found the staff were absolutely wonderful! Very helpful and so kind...from receptoon (particularly reception Wednesday afternoon until 11pm went the extra mile for which ... many thanks
