Could be a fantastic hotel with a lot of tlc, let themselves down with lack of information from how to get into parking area to where breakfast room is! The characters hanging around outside the adjacent pub(which is part of hotel) were suspicious at best, the vlt seems to attract them and have to fight through them to get in to pub. It is a quaint hotel with history but could do with lick of paint everywhere . Food in pub was tasty and good choice of beer but don’t expect peace and quiet at weekends

For the price the breakfast was terrible. I went down stairs for coffee and it was empty. I didn't like the parking situation. I didn't want to leave for fear of not getting secure parking behind a locked gate. First come first serve.

There were no lamp shades and the mattress was from the 70s. The bed bug traps between the mattress and box spring were appreciated...i guess.

Love the architecture / history of the hotel... And it is worth going there once and a 5 star for this alone. However a hotel is more than it's history. It needs a complete refresh.

I would stay here again.

Perfect location to go shopping. The hotel is has a lot of character, a bit old but well maintained. The room and bathroom are simple and comfortable. There is not a real breakfast… only yogurts, tiny muffins and bad coffee. However, the breakfast room is absolutely beautiful if you like older architecture. Great English pub!
