Building is old but in need of much updating and attention to fittings (most taps very wobbly, bathroom fittings throughout are extremely shabby and disappointing). Rooms not dirty but style and presentation of old furnishings results in feeling its not that good. Worst thing was the HEAT!!! Yes it was a heatwave last week but in a cool day when it had rained, we were forced to leave the fan on ALL DAY while we were out and all night with the window open (only upended a few inches) just to attempt to have some breeze. Fans gave no respite, just moving hot air round. The place really needs air con, prob hard to fit but it's a venue for weddings and ought to cater to a better caliber than it does. That said, all staff were helpful, friendly and can't fault them. Breakfast was good. Two for one on Saturdays made it worth it but would be pricey at £17.95 each of booked in the day. Check that before booking. Building would be hard to get around in if disabled. No lift and lots of stairs around and long hallways. Disabled parking spaces x 3 but not located very close to access without stairs immediately inside and not near the front of the building. There were closer parking spaces under the flags, not sure why these are prioritised over disabled parking in terms of proximity. Have stayed here twice, liked location, had thought it shabby first time but gave it a second chance. Prob wouldn't stay here again as it is right now. Shame. Could be lovely but needs work.
