Nice stay
Really nice place.
Rooms and the restaurant are quite cold, but it's cozy and the kids bunk beds were amazing.
Food overpriced for what you get, but it was a friendly service

Can't wait to return!
After 5 weeks of travel, this gem was a memorable last night - one of our nicest stays. A charming old hotel, its many character features were seamlessly integrated into a very enjoyable stay. The bed was comfortable and large, the in-room amenities better than most, and the included breakfast went well beyond expectations. Being an older building there are stairs to the upper levels and no AC; some may also find the road-frontage rooms noisy with the windows open. For us these were minor, understandable considerations and wouldn't for a minute deter us from returning.

Very easy to get to and park , lovely area to walk around . Breakfast was great and staff lovely and helpful.
The only thing I would say is we stayed in the room near the car park and the noise from people drinking outside was quite loud, also the tv signal wasn’t that great. But I would stay there again .

Love the look of the bed room though wifi wasnt the best in the room, bathroom was so chic, definitely got my moneys worth with that claw foot tub. Staff were so lovely especially after I came from seeing my partner off to basic training, felt very comforted. Will definitely stay again

Not as good as it used to be
This has been a staple of our visits to the area for many years so we were disappointed with how things have changed in such a short period.
On arrival we were told that the water would be off the following morning at 8am for planned plumbing works. No apology, no pre warning. In addition, the staff proved quite unfriendly - not just with us - with everyone who is not a regular. Not something we expected nor should expect of a hotel. Very disappointing over all and not an enjoyable experience.

Lighting
The only adverse comment which was relayed to the hotel staff - the lighting in the room (No. 6) was generally very poor and it was quite impossible to read by the bedside lights
