Good location for what we wanted but the room smell would be put me us off staying there again
Pros:

Close proximity to the Great Western for an event we attended

Cons:

Our room smelled very musty like old wet carpet. Not sure if it was the carpet or smelly air con but it was vey unpleasant. Also the rodent trap along the skirting board in the room was not a good look.

An Interesting Stay
Pros:

The decor has the 'wow' factor, very beautiful! Bed, pillows and couch were all very comfortable. The complimentary welcome pack was a lovely touch.

Cons:

The location across the road from the train line is not ideal for sleeping 😴🥴 Maybe add some earplugs into the Welcome Pack 💁‍♀️
