Very disappointing. Courtyard was lovely but nothing else.
Cons:

The shower was just drizzle.. no pressure.
The overhead lighting didn’t work.
There was no fridge - this was a suite
There were cobwebs and very dusty.
Old gloomy furniture which looked tired and unattractive. All very dated.
Stale air.
Depressing.

Historic hotel in a good location.
Pros:

Its location is excellent and the room was very comfortable and spacious.

Cons:

Not enough breakfast staff on duty. The side parking spaces had equipment and a storage cabinet in their rears, reducing the parking space available when removing luggage from the boot.

Excellent location in city centre. Comfortable room with fans provided to keep the room cool as the hotel isn't air conditioned due to its age.

Cons:

There could have been more electrical sockets, as we needed to charge our devices. If there were, we sisn't managero find them.
