Pros:

Very cute rooms in a central location, neat and clean and all necessities available (including tea, milk and kettle; fresh ground coffee with a french press, some cookies). The downstairs bistro is great for breakfast or a quick bite in the evening, but cannot be heard at all which is nice.

Cons:

Nothing

Lovley .. great location lovley staff very modern and clean
Pros:

Modern clean felt more like a hotel standard than a inn standard top quality

Cons:

The cleaners start realy early from 6 am difficult to sleep through , the bathrooms also had a sewage type smell so I think it could be the drains as the place was spotless
