After viewing the website and reading the reviews I booked with confidence and had high expectations for my stay, unfortunately it proved a disappointment from the start, there was so many issues, some contentious, some personal, but a lot irrefutable for a property within this price range, and it would take an age to list them all. I stayed in the suite which on the website is portrayed as having period charm but, a room with period charm and one that’s tired uncomfortable and in desperate need of modernisation are close neighbours and I certainly know which type of room I stayed in. I think I can forgive anything provided I’m offered three fundamental services, parking, sleep, and breakfast and, we received none. From the moment we arrived parking became a major issue for the duration of our stay, the mattress was so old and lumpy it was like sleeping on a sack of potatoes, seriously, how can you allow anyone to sleep on such an old lumpy mattress and expect them to have a good night’s sleep. As for the breakfast, while I will not dispute the quality, it was very limited and unappetising. My partner is gluten intolerant, yet they could not accommodate her breakfast needs, so we had to purchase our own bread from the local supermarket and give it to you and ask that it be used for the breakfast sandwiches. With so many places, even budget hotels like Premier Inn, providing quality comfortable accommodation the bar of expectation has been set quite high, unfortunately your establishment falls well below that level. I have never been one to question the price but, I will always question the value for money, and I felt that they were not offering that. I guess if anyone arrives by public transport, has low expectations, no food intolerances and can sleep on a clothesline, then I think they’ll enjoy their stay but, for me, unfortunately I’ll not be returning anytime soon.
