Just lovely
Pros:

They upgraded us to a larger room for free because it was available, and we got shown to our room, which was also a lovely gesture. Great room, really comfy and clean. Food was great (evening & the next morning), but what I REALLY liked was that there was a 'pantry' just along from our room, radio playing quietly, well-stocked with lots of different teas, coffee capsules, a large bottle of proper milk in the fridge, a sliced cake to help oneself to. That whole pantry made it really feel like home from home - SO much nicer than the horrible coffee & UHT milk sachet one usually gets. I never write these reviews, but it was that good and YES I would definitely go back again. Lovely staff, lovely evening, great little place.

Cons:

nothing

Disappointing. Requested ground floor only to be told on arrival they have none.
Pros:

Staff and food brilliant

Cons:

The bedroom was dreadful, one of the worst we've experienced. Absolutely tiny. Couldn't get around and the bathroom door banged into the bed. No where to put your things down and only hanging space was by the bed, again blocking movement. No drawer space.

Perhaps not suited to business trip that arrives on a Sunday evening and leaves early next day.
Pros:

Food served for evening meal was very good, although menu limited at the time of my arrival.

Cons:

Breakfast wasn`t available until 9am on the morning of my departure, so a very limited continental option was made available.
If I had been aware that breakfast was served at 9am, I would probably have booked somewhere else.

Beautiful and unique boutique hotel
Pros:

What a fantastic well designed, exceptionally clean but cool place to stay. Found it by recommendation and I can definitely recommend it. It's a thoughtfully designed boutique style hotel. The fixtures and fittings are superb. The rooms are very well designed. There's even a tea/coffee area on the landing with a vast choice of drinks FOC with a slice of cake or two. Help yourself. Very chic. Much better than the usual kettle set up in your typical hotel room. The staff were all very welcoming and lovely. The bar area had lots of interesting touches including horse saddle stools. The food though was exceptional. As usual we ordered too much. Special mention for the burger. I've had lots of burgers and this one was the best I'd ever tasted. The menu isn't vast. But there's plenty of choice and means all the food is cooked fresh by a chef and it definitely shows. Breakfast the next day was exceptional. Quality locally sourced produce. Lots of options.

Cons:

Nothing. Couldn't really find fault.
