All in all it was great
Pros:

The location was perfect The pubs in the area were so much fun. The hotel and staff were excellent.

Cons:

Our only complaint was how long they took to serve you breakfast. Our 2nd morning we chose not to have breakfast there as we had to catch a train. I think they also need to offer a continental option for those who need a quick breakfast

Pros:

The staff was friendly, super accommodating and personable. Live music was incredible to have while you had a pint after a long drive. Breakfast wad great, portions are LARGE.

Cons:

Dumpster Dan emptying the bins religiously at 6am. That kind of was a downer but nothing the hotel did was a drawback.
