Cons:

On our second morning we awake to no hot water . When we rang reception the response was “ just give us some time “.
When we went downstairs to reception we were told if we wished to be compensated then send an email .
At checkout there was no apology and we were charged for a bottle of water !!!! After having no hot water for a shower . The very basic of accomodations has hot water available.

Pros:

The location -perfect. The ambience of the residence - perfect. Front of house - extremely helpful and courteous. The cleaning staff that we met in passing - smiling and friendly. The building is steeped in history and feels warm and welcoming.

Ambient, friendly, spotlessly clean
Pros:

I love the ambience of this property, it’s Central location and always, the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Also, the hotel is absolutely spotless. I also enjoy the art on display, and try to stay every year to view their free Hadley‘s prize exhibition. Again, this year, it did not disappoint.
