Its an older eclectic property. Kind of neat but also a bit run down. The waitress at the restaurant tried to scam my credit and give herself a huge tip.

I found this hotel to be very dirty. We had booked 2 nights but only stayed for one. Upon arrival we were allocated a room, upon entering I found the room to be very dark and upon closer inspection there was hair around the bath and the toilet was dirty! We went to reception and they allocated us another room. This room opened up onto the pool area but the door was locked, again very dusty and dark. We couldn’t open the curtains to let in natural light as people opposite would be able to see into our room. I had a pretty terrible nights sleep (and extremely noisy air con) and upon going to breakfast the next morning one of the bins were full and weren’t emptied and the fruit that was out the raspberries had mould on them! Upon checking out after the first night, we spoke to the general manager who had agreed to refund us for our second night which was kind. I personally wouldn’t recommend to stay at this hotel as it made me feel dirty and itchy all day!

Nice hotel. Would like to see an indoor lock on doors for security as they accidentally assigned another guest to my room and opened my room door at 10:30 pm.

Loved that the rooms were named after authors! We were looking forward to having a drink in the Fox and Hounds prior to dinner, but the bar didn’t open until 5 and closed at 10 and we had dinner reservations /concert to go to. We hoped to jump in at 5 and grab a quick drink using our coupon, but it still did not open at 5! Complimentary breakfast was a pleasant surprise and included hot eggs, sausage, and lots of pastries. Would give 5 stars, but we like to have a cocktail prior to retiring for the evening at the hotel bar.
