Negative Reviews
negative:
Parking frustrations
Although free overnight parking was available at nearby public car parks and on-street, the availability of spaces wasn't always guaranteed, especially during peak periods. Furthermore, daytime charges often applied in the town centre.
negative:
Occasional criticism of some rooms
Critics sometimes said they felt certain rooms had a dated feel or were rather small. There were also occasional claims that there were bathrooms that were insufficiently cleaned or in need of modernization.
negative:
Noise travelled fairly easily
Being a listed building, some of the centuries old walls at this bed and breakfast allowed sound from adjacent rooms to travel too easily, which proved to be a nuisance for some light sleepers.
