Hugely disappointed .
Pros:

Lovely building in stunning location.
Breakfast staff were great.

Cons:

Poor room. Very dark. No window and only air source was directly on kitchen extractor fan which churned all day from 6am.
No jacuzzi facility in leisure centre. Also swimming lessons curtailed poll use.
Replacement towels on second day were incomplete. Only two towels replaced.’
Paying £364 for two nights in a windowless, dark room. We accept no supplement was paid for a view but we did expect daylight.
Made our thoughts clear to reception staff within two hours of checking in to be transparent about our disappointment. Only suggestion offered was to close upper air source but reopen when kitchen was closed. Around 9.30/10.00.
Upper air source was at least 7ft high. Not prepared to stand on furniture to operate this. Actually, no furniture in room anyway other than the bed.

Erm..I think it might have seen batter days?
Pros:

A grand old place in need of a little more love to make it shine. The bathrooms were super spacious

Cons:

After an epic journey we had to wait ages to check in while a couple were debating their dinner bill. The bedsheets were bobbly, pillows lumpy and a spider was waiting for me in my bed.

It was pleasant enough, the room was big and all the facilities were more then adiquate.
Pros:

All was good with the exception of the smell of mold. The bleach the staff uses still does not eliminate that smell.

Cons:

The fact a kid above us ran around in his room for the better part of 4-5 hours making a lot of noise and the staff member on shift did nothing to quell the noise. We had a very early morning and this was told to the staff member.
