A hotel that very much needs to raise it's game
Pros:

We did not have breakfast

Cons:

The room that we stayed in and other parts of the hotel that we saw clearly indicate that The Godwins is in much need of investment. Other than the exterior of the building, the photos that appear on Booking.com are rather judiciously taken and don't really provide an accurate impression of the reality of the interior. My main criticism is the lack of cleanliness in the the room in which I stayed. The carpet was not one on which I would have walked barefoot and the room did not appear to have been dusted for some considerable time. I can't exaggerate how dusty some parts of it were. In fact I took some photos at the time but deleted them after deciding to simply move on and not leave a negative review. However whilst not wishing to knock anyone struggling to run a business in these difficult times I've since changed my mind in this respect and have decided to leave a review. I hope that it's one that prompts the owners to reflect and improve rather than something that results in lost bookings
