A very enjoyable and comfortable stay in an excellent location.
Pros:

Our room was spotlessly clean, the bed and bedding were really comfortable. The shower was strong. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The hotel is located very close to Plymouth’s main attractions. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

Cons:

There was nothing we didn’t like.

It was fine. Staff was kind ad nd helpful.
Pros:

We enjoy the place.

Cons:

The room was in the attic style and it seems slanting. Stairs was so stiff going to our room and broken furniture was there in our room, no free toothbrush, toothpaste and hand lotions knowing for a 4 star hotel?

Some parts of the room was having dusts especially on the side tables.

English breakfast is limited per head. We thought that it same as other hotels that we can make our own english breakfast just by getting each pieces to the hot serving table area. Knowing it is 4 star hotel.

But cold and hot drink was fine.
