Such a comfortable stay in an excellent location!
Pros:

This was the most comfortable stay we have ever had. The king-sized bed was so comfortable, the linen was excellent quality as were the pillows.
They have carried out beautiful renovations.

Cons:

As I read from other reviews, they are renovating the property, so the outside is a bit of a building site, but don't let this put you off.

Would not stay or recommend again until construction was complete.
Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

Was not warned about the heavy construction taking place at the door step that started very early in the morning. Room ventilation was an issue too. Very stuffy.

Pros:

The rooms were clean, bed comfortable.

Cons:

There is major renovation happening with no notification about it. When the reason you stayed there was for the hotel and to arrive and find it was completely gone. Very disappointing.
