Pros:

Rummet var trevligt. Säng och sänglinne behagligt.

Cons:

Det var för stort och opersonligt! Löpande band. Trots trevlig inredning i restaurangen och baren. Så är det svårt med alla hundar överallt. Ingen tanke på allergiska kunder!!

Pros:

All ok. Thats it.

Cons:

Bit of a corporate atmosphere.
No way that I was going to provide much personal information just to use the wifi. That is data harvesting for profit, pure and simple.

Pros:

Building is fantastic. Lots of character just be prepared for lots of stairs

Cons:

Parking was limited close by but we did arrive late in the day. Small leak in bathroom from shower, bath panel looked very tired and could benefit from replacing. Rooms were very warm even with windows open and radiators off (great if that's your thing though!)
