Not the best and not the worst.
Pros:

Sympathetic conversation of a heritage building.

Cons:

Bar closes at 9.30pm and there is nowhere to sit, other than your room. The room was quite small, so just a bed and a small space around the edge.
There appeared to be only one member of staff on duty and they were rushing around covering reception, the bar and waiting table.
