Average.
Pros:

Location is good. Parking facilities are good but expensive. Overall the old building has a charm

Cons:

The Manor rooms are a big disappointment. A window with no view, bad furniture and poor lighting made it a difficult stay.
We asked for a famed tour of the hotel and room 311 and our guide was a huge disappointment. He was just reading the signs as if we could not read the same.
There is no breakfast service in the hotel.
