Pros:

The only bad thing was WiFi it hardly worked and mobile signal was poor but they were really nice and let me check in 3hrs early with no extra to charge but to be fair this will be a good hotel and nice stay once the refurbishment has fully been completed so to be fair it was faultless as everything else was spot on it was just WiFi would deffentley recommend signal WiFi boosters that will resolve that issue once for all 💯

Cons:

Rest off stay was fantastic

Horrendous, avoid avoid avoid.
Pros:

Location, we've stayed here a number of years in the past.

Cons:

We have stayed here in recent years, and perfectly located lovely area and the bar and restaurant spot on. This year, the bar and restaurant closed. The people above our room had no respect for any other human. From crashing around until late at night then in the middle of the night at 3am to them waking up and running around at 6am. Very little chance to sleep. Horrendous and you need to avoid avoid avoid.

Could have been great
Pros:

The location is great and the place has fantastic potential. Really enjoyed the layout of the room, spacious and comfortable bed. This could have been such a great stay.

Cons:

The cleanliness and the state of repair could really do with some investment. There was a rug that clearly hadn't seen a vacuum cleaner for some time. The shower was not in a great state of repair. Gaps in the silicone had been exploited by ants (poor things died in their droves as water splashed on them and washed them away but there was no way of preventing that) and the shower hose was broken, so only a fraction of the water ended up where I wanted it.

Lovely short Stay
Pros:

Absolutely loved the room, had everything we needed for a 1-night stay. loved the field behind the place, which offered a lovely evening walk.

Cons:

I think we were under another room, and could hear every single step they took, which isn't the place's fault, as it could have just been a heavy-footed person.
