Hotel is lovely,unluckily for us the fan system broke keeping us awake!
Pros:

Lovely and clean,staff were always polite and friendly and ready to help

Cons:

Beds are solid,if you like a hard bed,you’ll be fine,if not they are not comfortable (I have spinal issues so not good for me) very noisy corridors,not good when you have dogs with you (one guest found it funny at home midnight to keep slamming their door just to start our dogs off barking).we stayed 3 nights,on our 3rd night we were woken up but a god awful loud banging and clattering like something was crashing through the roof.this quietened down to what was like an industrial sized washing machine on fast spin which continued for the rest of the night!the night porter came and had a look and said it was the fan system had broken and couldn’t be fixed until morning.we were offered to change to a smaller room,which would’ve meant packing and moving all our belongs at 12.45am along with our two dogs,which we declined,and fortunately my husband can sleep through anything (and he’s the driver) so he got some sleep on and off,I stayed awake,and we had a 6 and half hour journey back to Anglesey the next morning.

Nice stay
Pros:

The beds were so comfortable, the staff were so friendly and happy and couldn't have done more to help you. Really nice lobby area.

Cons:

Food was good but not amazing, it was average but the menu was nice and varied. The room dark wood 🪵 left it feeling dated and could do with a makeover like the rest of the room as half of the rooms lovely.

Other than the bathroom issues the hotel was absolutely fine
Pros:

The location and facilities are perfectly fine for my visit

Cons:

I had an issue with the bathroom , each time the loo was flushed there appeared to be an air lock in the plumbing and was extremely noisy and the noise went on for ages, staff were made aware and attempts made to rectify the problem but unfortunately wasn’t sorted before I left.

Overall disappointing due to room cleanliness, would not return.
Pros:

Reception area nice and food was alright.

Cons:

Rooms very tired, massive yellow stain on carpet which was so bad we photographed it and showed it to reception staff to ensure we weren't blamed for it. Also bad stains on bed runner and a couple on duvet. No phone in room and we weren't provided one after asking twice so couldn't order room service or contact reception for anything.
