Pros: fun themed hotel with great decor and fabulous breakfest I would call "continental plus". Most of hotel stafg was friendly. Cons: the entrance and bathroom in our room were freezing, while rest of the room was okay. Common areas were also cold (lobby thermostat read 66) The air handler in our room was incredibly loud as mentioned by other reviews. Finally, while everything was clean, most of the place looks worse for the wear. For example, our bathroom mirror had decorative peices missing from it and big scuff and scratch marks all over door frame like it hadn't had a deep clean or fresh coat of paint in way too long. Overall, I felt it was a quaint idea that lacked value for price.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cheshire. Staff were friendly and helpful. The property was charming and decorated for Christmas. The room had everything we needed. The breakfast spread was surprisingly great, with scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, fresh fruit and delicious pastries. We will be back!
