Nice food, need a better cleaner
Pros:

Food was nice although cheeky charging upgrades for breakfast £5 for an extra sausage and bacon is a bit steep

Cons:

Beds and towels were fresh. But the bathroom was not clean, marks on the floor and shower etc, bottom of the toilet where the water is was completely brown

Piacevole relax in hotel dopo visite alla città
Pros:

Bella la zona in cui si trova , buona la colazione inclusa soprattutto perché tipica inglese.
Bello anche l'edificio storico.

Cons:

Camera un po' rumorosa nelle prime ore del mattino a causa di una macchina installata in un locale vicino.
Non mi è piaciuto non riuscire ad aprire bene le finestre.

It's good but could be epic.
Pros:

The place is large, welcoming and the rooms quirky and fun

Cons:

The walls between rooms are paper thin - and was woken in the night by neighbours having fun. Should be better privacy. No hairdryer or fridge in the room - furniture in room falling apart - not the bed! Lights not working - generally it's scruffy.

Hated the 'supplement' for pre-paid breakfast. - to get a real full English you need to pay an extra £5 which is silly. Served half measures of juice.

Silly things like toilet roll was meagerly supplied, the lighting in the room was naff with spotlights dirty and obscured.

It feels like a place loved about 10 years ago and now it's just being nudged along without investment.

It's not that it's bad, it's that it could be epic.

Interesting but not impressed.
Pros:

Pleasant quiet tree lined street location near park. Friendly staff. Although we arrived just before closing time in the evening for the Restaurant kitchen ( 8pm) the staff kindly requested the chef to stay on and provide an evening meal for us. This was much appreciated. The bedroom was spacious.

Cons:

The bedroom contained a freestanding bath with handheld shower attachment which made quite a feature in the room with a handbasin wall mounted nearby. The toilet was located in a tiny alcove with a glass wall partition and door, a feature that I did not find attractive. However, at least the extractor fan worked. It often doesn’t in hotels. The overall decor is quirky and unusual with old semi stripped floorboards and not very clean looking carpets. The stairs to the second floor were very scruffy and paint chipped.

At diner the bavette steak required a great deal of chewingl!

Nice hotel, good location.
Pros:

Stylish (quirky?) room. Good range of drinks in the bar.

Cons:

Restaurant service was casual. A sign from the road to the parking would have been useful, to avoid a tour round the block.
