Not happy with booking.com
Pros:

Hotel staff very accommodating and welcoming great location

Cons:

The fact that booking .com offered and I exceped a room upgrade to which the hotel does not offer upgrades, as all standard rooms the same and then only family rooms, so paid for upgrade that does not exist ,so money taken on false pretence,very unhappy with booking .com.will not use again as this is ,to me a scam to take money on false pretence not at all happy with them,luckily hotel was pleasant experience.would book ourselves again direct.

The location was the only benefit and we will not be returning
Pros:

The location was the only benefit!

Cons:

The room was very dusty especially the carpet and the wardrobe. Also when we bought booked in the one of the staff informed us we could not use their carpark until 2pm (we got there at 13.40) so had to wait!! This is not good customer care! Also I had to ask about the key location after their closing times as this also was not explained to us. Finally the temperature was very hot in the room, so had to leave all the windows open during the night, there was no fan given to us.

Disappointed
Pros:

Location was great, bed was comfortable. Free parking for guests.

Cons:

The window frames in room were rotten, difficult to safely open windows. The toilet didn't flush well. Outside metal staircase to the room was steep and had damaged wooden handrail. Breakfast was not warm, croissant uncooked in the middle. We didn't feel it was worth what we paid for it and was the first time we've been disappointed with a property booked with Booking.com.

Comfy Bed and free car parking
Pros:

Really comfy bed and excellent Full English Breakfast. Free parking at the rear and the WiFi worked well

Cons:

I had booked the room on Booking.com and I always book a rate that includes breakfast but they still tried to charge me extra for the breakfast I had already paid for.
