  • "The lovely room and the fabulous food, evening dinner and breakfast."
  • "Room was spotless and cleaned every day."
  • "The room was spacious and spotlessly clean."
  • "Winnie’s suite is certainly 5* - yet you pay the price."

Cons:

  • "The bar is closed. No night porter, no TV, no breakfast and a broken bathtub."
  • "We stayed in Room 3 which could do with a lick of paint as there was dirty marks on the lower parts of the walls, curtain had a big rip in it."
  • "The room is nice though. It's as good as an airport one minus the stains on the headboard of the bed."
