Pros:

Nothing the property was very dated and everything old and worn, fan full of dust, broken blinds, worn and ancient furniture.

Cons:

The hotel was creepy and like something out of a horror movie. It needs a total refurbishment they should be offering this place for free, which was not worth £110 per night. Breakfast was very basic and had to wait long for all items to come out, and when they did, other items were cold. Staff rude not helpful. Bath was an old plastic bath. I thought I was going to fall through the next floor it didn't feel safe. Awful pictures all over the walls, nothing matched.

Quaint stay in a hotel out of the movies!
Pros:

The room was a good size, had interesting posters of Bruce Willis (ha!) and the English breakfast was delicious!

Cons:

There wasn't any air conditioning, only a fan, and we struggled for a couple of nights.
