"Beautiful curated room and furniture. Location is perfect for exploring the city and location by the river is picturesque, although the near by main does overshadow the tranquility."

8/10 Good
"The hotel reception, outside area, bar and restaurant were all great. The room was clean, the bathroom had been updated and was fine. The windows needed drastic attention, we could not move them due to the state of repair, I assume there is some sort on 'listed building status' but they really need attention. The location and everything else was great."
