Disappointing for the money
Pros:

Location and staff were helpful

Cons:

Patches of filler on the walls, room was boiling and couldn’t open the window as it was broken and wouldn’t stay up, even when I propped inner window up the outer windows had security tags on despite being an upstairs room so wouldn’t open more than an inch or two

Tired place. Attention to be paid to repairing windows or curtain fittings. Would not return.
Pros:

Very noisy as in main road. Hot room with one window to open 4” that was wedged open with half a tree log!

Cons:

As above. Couldn’t close curtains properly as both windows had curtains that were hanging off the rails with broken fittings. Sunshine blazing through already hot room!
Breakfast was very basic. For £315 for 2 nights, this was poor and expected a better class of property.

beautiful building, very nice staff but needs updating for the price
Pros:

booking in great, bed clean and comfortable, bathroom enormous and clean.

Cons:

Sink in bathroom drained at a very slow rate. Only powdered coffee in room. Birthday party right outside our downstairs suite then clearing up afterwards - noise ceased just gone 11. The cooked breakfast was only just warm, tomatoes were cold. When we arrived at breakfast yogurt empty, likewise fruit bowl. I asked politely for replenishment - took over 10 minutes. Perculated coffee - no fresh coffee ? For £178 for 1 night sorry do not think this was value for money.

Pros:

The staff and breakfast were lovely and the bed was comfortable

Cons:

There were ants crawling all over the dressing table and tea tray. There was an extremely loud macerator in the bathroom that made an horrendous noise every time you flushed the toilet, turned on the tap and it went off every few minutes you were in the shower. Unfortunately would not stay again

Beautiful hotel in the historic town of Spalding, well located for exploring Lincolnshire.
Pros:

The hotel was lovely: there was a very nice entry, lounge, bar and dinning area. I enjoyed the deck overlooking the garden. The room was large with good light nice views of the river and the town beyond. The road wasn't too busy or noisy. The hotel's location on the other side of the river from the town suited me as a base from which to explore Lincolnshire and my family's history. It was near (by car) to the Church of St Mary and St Nicolas and the Ayscoughfee Hall with it's beautiful gardens and museum. I enjoyed having dinner at the Moorings restaurant a few hundred meters along the river from the hotel.

Cons:

Everything was good.
