Very helpful solving an issue that was not of their making.
Pros:

They sorted an overbooking from Booking.com. they found me a room without a worry. They made me feel valued and understood. I had great night's sleep and a most enjoyable meal in the restaurant.

Pros:

Main location of the hotel.

Cons:

I had booked this hotel only with one expectation of on-site parking. However, upon arrival, I was informed that the parking was full and was advised to park outside.
I was quite disappointed with this, as parking was the only reason I chose this hotel.

The breakfast was amazing. We had many choices.

Its an older hotel, staff lovely downstairs, housekeeping needs improving.
Pros:

The staff were really lovely and helpful

Cons:

The lighting in my room was really poor.
Servicing of my room was missed one day.
You had to sleep on one side of the bed to turn the lights on/off.
I could hear the person next door; it seems that maybe the connecting door insulating was pretty minimal.
No wine glass (my sister's room had multiple so I took one from their)
