Staff were good. Staff were very friendly. Breakfast was very good. Walking distance to town. The breakfast tea wasn't good at all !. Pillows not to our liking (too thin and hard). Would have liked a chairin the room to go with the one stool. Decor a bit dated but they are in the process of refurbishment. there was a smell from bad drains in our room but room was clean. No en suite room. the fact that we were not told to pre-book the car park so had to park on the street about 1/4mile away as they were all resident permit holders only!. Bathroom was too small. Difficult to use washbasin. Car park space was not reserved as too many cars to rooms due to beingbank holiday weekend so had to find a space in a side road, didnt causeany problems though. We happened to be unlucky enough to get the roomwhich had not yet been renovated however, this is due to be renovatedthis winter so shouldnt be a problem for future guests next spring. very dated decor - felt like we had gone back in time. Though I understand they are in the middle of renovation and we were just unfortunate we got one of the old rooms.I thought the hotel was very tired, no ensuite, very old fashioned and in desperate need of a make over. Maybe a bit basic. Our room was very dated. Our bed was extremely uncomfortable with a very old mattress which gave back problems after sleeping on it. There was a problem with the shower drains which meant our bathroom had an awful smell. We reported this to the owner who was very appologetic.
