Room was clean and well appointed. Staff was excellent and attentive. There is no lift in the building so be prepared to take your luggage up and down stairs. The skylight in the room was a great addition for natural lighting. We were on the third floor and could not hear any noise from the pub on the ground floor. Overall an enjoyable experience and the bed was comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

This is a beautiful old building and the room is absolutely beautiful. The shutters don’t block out all the light and the windows are as old as the building so the street noise comes through BUT the neighborhood is quiet. The bar and restaurant are very good and highly convenient.

Liked: Cleanliness
Great location and staff lovely. Room a good size. Great hot water shower. Pub food and beer is good. Naturally we expected noise from the pub but the local environment was very noisy for quite a lot of the night with glass bins being emptied at 1am-4am and lots of car noise too. Not the fault of the staff but worth knowing if you are light sleeper. Also we were on the top floor up several flights of stairs which could put some people off.
