We were a bit surprised when we had to walk up a set of stairs with no elevator to get to our room 216 way at the back of the hotel. The hotel was lovely and the meals and eating areas were superb.

Hotel has several amenities, including pool (in separate building), outdoor event space, and is part of a walking trail covering historic points of interest. Restaurants on site were good. Not walkable to outside restaurants/stores.

The pictures on the app looked great and we really booked for the gym as it was in the area we wanted and had facilities. It didn’t open until 10 on a Sunday which is crazy. The hotel was incredibly run down, surprisingly so. Would NOT stay again.

Stay was fine, just fine. The property needs some tlc.it is out dated. The food was good but again the lounge/restaurant is old fashionned. The staff seemed overwhelmed. Had to wait for ages to be given desert menu then nobody came back to take order so we ended not having desert. Room was clean but basic. Bathroom was completely outdated. Shower was a disaster. Its a walk in shower, no door. Water was everywhere in the bathromm after i showered. Huge gap under the bedroom door which let in a lot of light and noise from people walikng in the corridor . The whole place felt a bit souless, no atmosphere. We will not return

Needs updating. Our rooms were small and very warm. Windows opened very little. The cleaners used a very powerful, perfumy disinfection which was overwhelming
