Great location. Very overpriced unfortunately not value for money
Pros:

Overall the staff were very friendly. The food was unfortunately below our expectations and I believe overpriced. The rooms were pretty expensive considering breakfast was not included.

Cons:

The food was below expectation. We experienced the evening dinner menu and breakfast. Definitely not value for money unfortunately.

It was a cozy little room, with radio.
Pros:

We really liked the room, as we had gotten the attic type of room (do not know how to describe it, but it was awesome), the bathrooms were clean and cozy, the meals which we had there were delicious. It was the best.

Cons:

Just one thing, my friend's room had two sinks in the room and the toilet was separate from the bath. That is all.

Never again !!!
Pros:

Die zentrale , trotzdem ruhige Lage

Cons:

Dieses Bambi Zimmer für Pound 120,-, ohne Frühstück und ohne eigenen Parkplatz war das bisher ÜBELSTE, was wir auf unseren Individual Reisen in den letzten Jahren erlebt haben. Dieses winzige Dachgaubenzimmer mag zwar für ein Stubenmädchen oder armen Studenten ausreichend sein, ist aber laut Chef des Hauses für einen Booking.com Gast völlig in Ordnung! Danke Booking.com!!!

Pros:

Gary and his staff were always kind and courteous. We were so very pleased that when we arrived early, around 9:30 AM, hoping that they might hold our bags, Gary was so kind to tell us that our room was ready. WHAT A TREAT! Thanks again Gary! The food was wonderful. Such a great location. Gary was also able to print out some walks for us which were soooo beautiful! In the evening we were allowed to play a game we brought in the dining room. Would definitely stay here again.

Pros:

Ottime le colazioni.
Lo staff stressato, ma gentile e competente, lavorano davvero tanto.
La posizione è ottima.
Il parcheggio si trova a breve distanza o a tempo anche sotto.

Cons:

Io penso che definirsi boutique hotel debba essere un'altra cosa.
Capisco il fascino dell'antico e forse i vincoli edilizi, e che abbiamo preso la stanza standard, ma alla fine su 6 alberghi visitati abbiamo trovato una stanza piccola come le altre, la porta del bagno non si chiudeva.
Per il prezzo pagato davvero troppo alto. Giusto per dormire in un edificio storico.

A lovely relaxing stay and we wish we could of stayed longer
Pros:

The room was nice and clean with a tea and coffee refreshments, fresh milk in bottles and fresh water in bottles where found in fridges in the hallways a nice touch.
its a lovely old building with lots of charm .
The breakfast was perfect a choice of poached, fried scrambled egg with the full english brought to you hot by a pleasant and helpful waiter.
The Full english breakfast if chosen was £15 and it included the best tastiest sausage,
also included tea, coffee with refill , and another table to help yourself to various juices , breads to toast , various croissants , cereals, hams, you will leave full.
location was central on the market square.
We stayed as we had a nearby wedding and the manager was very helpful in suggesting mini cabs as they are very 'rare' .
yes we would most definitely stay again - just for the breakfast !! itself.
Parking in their car parks was available and easy.

Cons:

having to think !!
No everything was good.

Wonderful way to spend my husbands 60th birthday
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent and a wide selection of options.

Cons:

Can't think of anything we didn't like other than car parks for the hotel we're very small and a little tricky to manoeuvre in.
