Brilliant: would recommend! Lots of attention to detail: check out the hand painted murals in the pub!
Pros:

The location was perfect, plus what an amazing remodel: we loved our brand new trendy suite, with all the snazzy mod-cons and contemporary furnishings. We were relieved to find that our rooms were far away from the Crown’s hopping pub—super quiet and a great sleep. Also a delish breakfast (we note the restaurant & pub were popular with non-guests, too)

Cons:

Hard to think of anything!
Our particular rooms would have been difficult to reach for an elderly person carrying bags—lots of stairs & level changes to reach there. The hallways were more utilitarian than the rooms.
