Unfulfilled potential

Liked: Easy to findNice location Easy check inUnique building (just needs some work to make it a good stay)Comfortable beds
Disliked: No liftCommunal milk and water in jugs in a fridge in the hallway - we did not have any of this as it felt unsanitary Thin walls - could hear our upstairs neighbours conversationsNo one at reception overnight - there is an out of hours number to call if you need help but there’s a feeling of being left to it. Poor bathroom fittings - door has a gap at the top and bottom and bath was stained. Breakfast choice was poor, we ended up getting a coffee and no food as none of it was appealing. Overall weird feeling, as I previously stated this hotel has so much potential but there’s a feeling of abandonment about it which made us feel on edge.

Lovely stay, we will be...

Liked: Friendly staff, big rooms, nice and quiet, beautiful grounds, excellent breakfast, lovely shower, comfy beds!

Superb

Great if you like eccentricity...

Liked: The grounds were nice and it was quiet at night (just the drone of cars on the motorway which I got used to). Bed was comfortable and the bath was nice. But I could see no sign of heating so I wouldn't want to stay there in winder. The windows look like they could be draughty too.
Disliked: I was unable to fill the kettle from the weird-shaped sink. The plug sockets were not thought out well - or the layout of the room wasn't. Maybe an extension cord is needed. I had to move a rickety table in front of the heatpump and the kettle cord only just reached a plug socket. You don't expect to have to do this kind of thing when trying to relax of an evening. There was no food available in the evening which was disappointing as I am pretty sure I read there was a bar and food.

Adequate at best

Liked: Breakfast okComfortable bed
Disliked: Rooms upstairsNo lift for heavy suitcasesNo fridge in room

The property is sited on...

Liked: Good
Disliked: As the property is out of town, it would have been good to have more facilities for making a light snack. The room didn't have a fridge, & only 1chair at the table.
