Disgusting
Pros:

It’s a beautiful building and the staff are very friendly

Cons:

I stayed at this hotel last week on the 8th of September, which I booked due to work commitments. I should say that I stay in hotels once or twice a week every week due to my job so I like to book nice places to have some comfort whilst away from home hence me booking this hotel which looked lovely. When I arrived at the hotel and checked in the staff were extremely friendly and showed me to my room. When I arrived in the room, the carpet seemed a little dirty and the bathroom floor also, but nothing too terrible.

My issue arose in the middle of the night when I rolled over in the bed to the other side and I felt something scratch me. I turned the light on and pulled the sheets back and to my horror there was a dirty used false fingernail in the bed. obviously, I was horrified, but it was the middle of the night so I just put the nail on the side and try to go back to sleep. In the morning when I woke, I noticed that one of the pillows on the other side of the bed under the top pillow look like it had lipstick stains on it to be honest it seems like the bed was made, but not changed.

I went to reception to check out and explained the issue to the receptionist and showed her the nail. She seemed really embarrassed and apologised and called the hotel manager. After a few minutes the hotel manager arrived and I explained the situation to him and showed him the nail and he seemed really flustered and said he would look into it and call me. I left my telephone number and email address with him. To be honest, it seemed like he just wanted to push me out of the hotel as quickly as possible.

Since then, I have had no contact from them despite the promise to look into it and call me. That room was definitely not clean. It seems like they just made the bed but didn’t actually change it or clean anything.

I am also very disappointed at the attitude of the manager and also the fact that he didn’t follow through with his promise and contact me.

Historically blissful and peaceful
Pros:

The location was beautiful, safe and quiet. The staff were nice and the charm and history of the property was lovely. The room accommodated my accessibility needs and although I’m not a constant wheelchair user, it is the most wheelchair friendly room I’ve stayed in, so it’s perfect for those who require space and a wet room alongside a bathroom if needed also. The food from the bar menu was lovely (really lovely hummus) and they catered for gluten free, with a really tasty gluten free roll that was lovely and moist, not the dry rolls I often get served. The spa was really lovely and the spaces to relax there are simply wonderful.

Cons:

The bed wasn’t the most comfortable, it was lumpy and felt as though the springs were poking through.
