My stay at the hotel had its highs and lows. The rooms were a disappointment - dark, dismal, and lacking any redeeming qualities. However, they were larger than expected for the price. The service was friendly and cheerful, making my stay enjoyable despite some issues with payment transactions. The location was convenient for a wedding and had nice options nearby, though the dining experience left a lot to be desired. Overall, a mix of positives and negatives during my stay.

The rooms were disappointing - dark, dismal, and lacked any redeeming features. There was condensation on the windows and traffic noise due to single glazing. The staff's response to our request for an additional full-size bath towel was not accommodating.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were very comfortable, spacious, and came with a powerful shower and bath as I had requested. The allocated room in the lovely old building added a touch of historic charm. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the bed provided a restful night's sleep. The service was exceptional with incredibly friendly and responsive staff. The location, while practical for my visit to family nearby, was not ideal for the city center, yet the recently refurbished surroundings were clean, modern, and welcoming. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with some items falling short, yet the overall value for money was fair. The facilities were satisfying, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay.

The hotel was nice and big, with rooms that didn't need any daily cleaning anyway. However, the grounds outside needed tidying as there was rubbish outside the window, and it felt a bit remote from the rest of the hotel. Despite this, the fact that my room was available even though I had booked and paid in advance was a plus.

My stay at the hotel was a complete disaster. The room was the worst I have ever been in, with a shower that didn't work properly, tap roulette for the water temperature, and no fire instructions. However, the room was big and clean, though a bit stuffy. Service was a mix; some staff were accommodating and welcoming, while others were straight to the point and lacking a welcoming smile. The location was ideal for my business needs but lacked charm, despite being lovely in the summer weather. The dining experience was forgettable, and I won't be returning. Overall, a regrettable stay with a few redeeming qualities.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were much larger than expected, pristine, and with good facilities, I found them uncomfortable and not conducive to a good night's sleep. The service was excellent, friendly, and warm, but the location was not ideal for me. The dining experience was okay, but I encountered some issues. Overall, I might consider staying here again based on certain aspects, but it's not my first choice.

The hotel's rooms need an upgrade as they were at the end of the corridor and nothing like the photos on the website, looking tired and neglected. The service, however, was excellent despite some issues, going above and beyond to ensure comfort. The location offers easy access to key areas, although some details like sinks in odd places were noted. Dining was hit or miss, with a good start to the day but not consistent quality. The hotel lacks proper facilities alignment with the price.
