Pros:

Check-in was seamless and the person at the desk was friendly, polite and helpful and suggested some ideas for dining out, which came in handy. The breakfast was really good with many options (full English breakfast or Continental breakfast) and the staff was pleasant.

Cons:

I paid for the most expensive room on booking.com at £135. This was a suite with a mezzanine floor for the bedroom. Sadly the room was tired with a poor repair on the ceiling from a leak above and the TV unit had clearly been sawn in half and they didn't bother to stain to colour match. Paint was scuffed off in the bathroom, which was a bit small with limited space around the sink due to awkward corners; it had cracked floor tiles and damp on the grout. The suite wasn't as spacious as the pictures suggested and felt like a box room version of a suite. I phoned reception when we realised only one bathrobe/pair of slippers had been provided for both of us. A member of staff promptly came up to bring the missing items, unfortunately only the robe was brought up, no slippers. So maybe a little more attention to detail wouldn't go amiss. All in all we were happy with the comfortable bed and the good breakfast but felt let down by the room itself. As we left our room to check out of the hotel, we saw into one of the other suites as the cleaners were in it with the door open. It was far more modern and spacious. So maybe they hold the best rooms for direct bookings. But for the price I paid I would have expected better.
