Really nice property at a good price
Pros:

This was a really nice property that definitely exceeded expectations. Big spacious room, comfortable bed, impressive bathroom, and all above a bar that served a good range of food and drink. The central location was also a bonus. Can't imagine I'll be rushing back to Barrow anytime soon, but if I was I'd happily stay here again.

Pros:

Good location and friendly welcoming staff at reception and bar/ dining room staff

Lovely executive room-which was very clean but disappointed with a smell coming from the plumbing/ bathroom that lasted 2 days- we had to keep the window open.
