Beautiful building. Great bars and food. Bed very comfortable. Live music. Don’t expect to get to sleep early on a Friday or Saturday night. Great if you like to party. Sunday night, great Jazz downstairs and nice and quiet after 9pm.

This property needs to be a bit more professional For instance the light did not work in bathroom and it was generally shabby. Had a nice veranda though.

I loved the character of this beautiful old building I stayed in room 19 The bathroom was very spacious i liked how there were 3 separate cubicles for toilet, bathtub and shower Tvs and fans in both rooms was great as were the microwave,toaster,fridge and tea/ coffee making facilities Two separate rooms was a great option for my family I realise it might not be an option but i think it would be good if you could install a lift for the accommodation We checked in got ourselves organised and went off to a show on the way down i actually had a bad fall at the bottom of the staircase where the carpet changes near the hall stand I would love to be a guest in that room one day in the future but although the staircase is beautiful i couldnt manage walking up and down it again Otherwise we had an enjoyable stay

The bed in our room was extremely comfortable. The hotel is in a very handy location and we were able to walk to where we needed to go. What we didn't like was how dark the room was - very poor lighting, especially in the bathroom.

An Enjoyable Stay.
Great location and excellent staff. We really enjoyed our stay. Perhaps the tv channels could be a little more extensive rather than the free to air ones on offer. Had an excellent meal from onsite kitchen so many positives!

Great location, good pub below, friendly staff who were very accommodating to our late arrival. No noise from the pub below, comfy bed and great shower. Bathroom window didn't open, but that's me being picky. Would recommend.

Paint/plaster was coming off the walls and mould on the fan. Overall condition of the room was just very poor and neglected. Bed was comfy and location was great.
