Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately the rooms are a bit tired looking. I had a room on the ground floor which was terribly noisy. I’m not sure the windows on the bifolds are double glazed so every vehicle that drove past was very loud. For this reason, I wouldn’t chose to stay here again :(

Lovely views, It was noisey due to road traffic in front of building, there was a few carpet stains and the wallpaper is looking a bit tired. The windows could do with a clean to admire your view. The room was spacious.

We were in a room on the third floor with no elevator provided. My wife has been referred to a surgeon for a knee injury so walking up and down 3 flights of stairs was uncomfortable.

Stayed on the ground floor close to the road. Woken up at 5am due to the road sweeper then the traffic began. So don't expect a sleep in on the ground floor.
