Not great
Pros:

Location to Queens Hall

Cons:

Window could not be opened - the curtain rail was lose and didn’t cover window. The sink plug was black with dirt, bed tiny for 2 was like sleeping in a single. No one around at breakfast we sat and ate before anyone came over and to top off we got stuck in the lift.

A great time
Pros:

It was very welcoming, clean, and so handy for the town's facilities. It is also a very good venue for the acoustic sessions.

Cons:

I would have liked a bath and a chair to hang my jacket but apart from that it was great.
