Great staff and a lovely old building
Pros:

Beautiful historic building in a lovely location. Friendly welcome and accommodating staff. Room was very well appointed for a single room.

Cons:

There were no spare sockets next to the bed for phone charging, which is an oversight these days. The room was very hot when I got there, but it was during a heatwave!
