We would definitely return and maybe request a slightly larger room.
Pros:

Lovely central setting. A little difficult to find the carpark. We should have asked for directions beforehand when we booked the parking space.
Greta pool amd a lovely breakfast area in the garden. Also a 5 minute stroll to the centre of town.

Cons:

The room was a little small and quite expensive, but I guess that's what you pay for, for a nice hotel in the centre of town. Other than that and finding the carpark, everything was great.
