Great location. Dated and worn venue. But cheap, so hurrah!
Pros:

Location and style.

Cons:

We only paid £59 for a night, so our expectations were set low, but it wouldn’t hurt if the owners entered the 2020s and put double sockets near the bed so that ALL their guests could charge their phones overnight.

Niet voor herhaling vatbaar
Pros:

Authentieke sfeer

Cons:

Het was veel te warm op de kamer raam kon nauwelijks open. Van buiten stond de ventilatie van het hotel te blazen. Mijn man is halverwege de nacht in de auto gaan slapen

Lovely hotel, needs work internally and staff that want to be working there, improved menu
Pros:

The actaul hotel is stunning, beautiful architecture

Cons:

Upgraded to a suit which was freezing as the hotel heating had been turned off as it was coming to summer, yet the weather and temperature over the past week had been wet and cold.

The restaurant was ok but service was very low, having to wait and chase to get dessert. Limited choice on the menu.
