I don’t know what to say
Pros:

The property is magnificent at first glance and what a terrible shame it is now just budget rooms. You walk through amazing original wood panelled rooms and past bar and restaurants you can imagine where once bustling with life.
On the positive the towels were large and the bed comfy.

Cons:

Such a pity this is now In use for budget stays. It appears most of the building is not in use and left to almost ruin with a few rooms having been allocated to keep ‘ alive ‘ to bring in a quid or two. Feels a little upsetting. The one staff member we saw appears to be an overwhelmed caretaker of sorts who showed us to our room then completely disappeared. The room was okay but the shower completely cold with a very noisy macerator. There was a missing wall light with the wires left dangling .Breakfast was actually continental not cooked a consisted of bread( only one slice available and not replenished ) stale croissant,yoghurt and cereal that looked like it had been in and out the original box several times. Not even a coffee which I had decided I was gonna grab and run.
Everything feels a little unsafe, we were only there one night and witnessed a sizeable leak , out of order facilities ( not good when you’ve been travelling and who doesn’t arrive desperate for a wee ) and fire extinguishers that haven’t been checked for some time. I mean I slept o’ but it all feels like a disaster waiting to happen.

Pros:

Friendly staff member (we only saw one) great location for what we needed. We didn't see the pool area so can't comment on that. Cheap breakfast, selection of a couple of cereals, juice, toast and pastries. No cooked options, fine for us but depends on what you are looking for. Room was clean.

Cons:

Hotel is very tired. The photos on booking.com make it look fresher than it is. I had read the reviews so I knew what to expect, I would have been disappointed otherwise. We only needed somewhere to sleep for one night to attend a family party nearby, so it did the job. It's not the sort of place you would book for a weekend away and plan to spend time at the hotel. We arrived at 8pm on a Saturday and didn't see a soul. No bar or anything open. The bathroom needed a good paint and descale. £88 for the night was expensive for the room we had. Maybe other rooms are in a better condition.

An interesting venue
Pros:

The look of the building, character. Friendly night staff helping me in when I couldn't get my key to open the door to get into the building .

Cons:

Reduce of staff due to winter season.
I like a carpeted bedroom, it was wood flooring. I understand it was a dog friendly room so easy to clean might be the reason.

Very disappointed and not what was expected or advertised.
Pros:

Nice and secluded
Helpful staff member

Cons:

Very dated, not many things were in working order, no internet, terrible checking in process, in need of much decoration, dark in many places, breakfast, location of room plugs, not very clean in places, filthy mug, and only one member of staff who also appeared to be the handyman trying to fix everything including breakfast.

Very disappointing
Pros:

Location and breakfast

Cons:

I emailed twice and left phone message requesting twin beds. Had no reply. We were told on arrival we had a double bed. They then provided another bed
after I requested a full refund. Room was very cold. Swimming pool sauna not available as advertised.

Pros:

Nice and quiet location, beautiful building and common rooms. Bedroom was redecorated and clean. Tea, milk and sugar replaced after day 1. Location was ideal.

Cons:

Bathroom ceiling was falling away and mouldy unfortunately. The toilet would not flush well either . Our towels were not replaced at all during our 3 night stay and I couldn’t find anyone to ask about fresh ones.

At check in there was a bit of confusion as to if we were in the right location, even though we arrived at 5pm, the check in desk was unmanned and we had to go hunting around the venue to find someone to help. The phone number displayed on the website was not working and messages via booking .com regarding early check in, that I was enquiring about in the lead up, went unanswered.

The man we spoke to was friendly and helpful once we got to check in, just overall the place has a little bit of an eerie vibe at the moment while there are still works ongoing.

It is a beautiful building though, with lots of potential with the right care. I hope it will better for future customers to enjoy soon.

Not worth the money
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The room was filthy bed was not a double. In the bathroom the shower was looking tired and the cobwebs like it hadn't been cleaned for months. Had booked for two nights but left after one as i could not spend another night there. It was also very noisy could not sleep at all
Cant realy comment on the pool or other facilities as i did not see or use them.

Would not stay here again.
Pros:

The building itself. This is a magnificent building with beautiful architecture. The wall mountings and architecture was Victorian in its design.

Cons:

It was run down and extremely dirty with only certain areas open. The gym and swimming pool were closed and in the dirty side of the building. The 1 x staff left at 1900hrs and locked up and I don't know what time in the morning the place was opened up as I left at 0830hrs and there was nobody around.

Okay, the stunning property alone doesn’t make a stay worth it
Pros:

Charming building, not used to its full potential (yet?)

Okay for 1 night.

Cons:

Swimming pool closed for a long time. The pool was the reason we booked this property in this area.

Hostel or backpacker vibes.
