Due to the inability for the hotel to supply a proper double bed we will not be staying here again
Cons:

The bed was not a proper double bed as requested. 2 single beds pushed together do not make for a comfortable bed for a couple

Séjour magnifique avec un personnel adorable et discret. Je recommande le breakfast anglais qui est délicieux. Je pense
Pros:

Son emplacement, la gentillesse du personnel, son calme, son "breakfast"

Cons:

Le seul bémol est le lit, très confortable quand on se trouve sur l'un des deux côtés mais peu confortable au milieu car ce sont deux lits simples qui sont accolés. Ce n'est qu'un détail mais ayant mal au dos ces jours là, je l'ai ressenti dans la nuit

Pros:

Location to Mansfield.
Have used it before over the years.

Cons:

I have with my wife had bedroom 3 and found it reasonably comfortable.
The move me to bedroom 1 BUT, overlook the dirty back entrance to kitchen etc.
There was a 24 hour air conditioning unit that was rather noisy all the time.
I was thinking of booking July next year but if I have unit 1, then it's a no go.
Unit 2 & 3 are ok.
Unit 1 needs maintenance to upgrade it to look worth while.
