Great Boutique Hotel
This hotel was excellent. The staff were delightful, everyone very friendly and very helpful. The hotel had all of the amenities you would need bar a fridge in the room as other reviews have mentioned. This wasn’t an issue for us though, they give you milk in a thermos at the bar.
The room itself did look a little tired in places but it’s a 3-star hotel so that was okay with us. That being said, it was very clean and comfortable which is what matters most.
I would advise check booking through the hotel website directly, they do deals and I suspect I may have gotten the room cheaper directly than through Hotels.com, rookie mistake by me but it is what it is.
Overall a great hotel made even better by its staff.

Problem with bathroom
Hotel staff were fantastic and professional especially the reception . However despite contacting the site staff the bathroom shower taps did not work . We all were not able to have a shower or bath due to the taps not working properly. The site staff couldn’t work it out and it was hit and Miss whether you had hot water . Having a cold shower was disappointing and very uncomfortable! I did tell the reception as this room really should be let out until resolved. The reception and breakfast was excellent so we didn’t make a fuss but it certainly left a negative vibe to our stay .
