Excellent stay. Peterborough is a lovely place.
Pros:

Warm welcome. Pleasant staff. Excellent location for centre of town.

Cons:

Postcode for hotel. Unable to access by car. Ended up parking elsewhere and walking. Different postcode and map issued for car park which was then very straightforward. This should have been explained beforehand to save all the hassle.

A very unpleasant experience
Cons:

Had to carry suitcases to top floor (in our 80s) The room was unbearably hot with no air conditioning, not even a fan (though requested). Widow so secured that it would only open one inch - we were baked and unable to sleep. The heat was trapped in the staircase and rose as one climbed We should NEVER have been give a room below the roof when it was in the 30s outside.

Pleasant hotel with nice bar / pub in a town that is an absolute dump
Pros:

Quick check-out - nice traditional bar

Cons:

Lack of acknowledgment on reception as the receptionist and another guest were staring at each other in silence for some reason. Could easily have been explained as an aside. Bit odd

What price breakfast !
Pros:

Location, evening meal.

Cons:

Reception attitude after informing 2 days previous that there would only be 2 guests (Wife sick) so please remove one breakfast from 2 day stay. Thanked me and said they would infirm chef. When I arrived refused to deduct to cost of two breakfasts from tial bill. They said because I had booked through a 4rd Party (Booking.com).
