Pros:

Everything about this hotel is excellent. The location is superb nestled between the canal and the river Dee and to top it off our balcony looked at probably the best looking Victorian railway station, and we're completely surprised when a beautifully restored steam train pulled in to station

Cons:

It would be great if it had a lift, but we knew that when we booked

Shower temperature difficult to control. WiFi and TV reception very poor, probably a result of geography and beyond control of the hotel.
