susanna ensured i received excellent care. the staff showed clear pride in the building's history. i found breakfast delicious. i also received a bag containing water and a snack upon checkout, a very thoughtful touch.
i found some extras quite pricey. considering the prime location, my room felt fairly priced, but certain drinks seemed overpriced. it was a very minor inconvenience though.

adequate but pricey stay
expensive extrassmoking policy
the minibar prices reminded me of highway robbery. i mean, seriously, £8 for a bag of crisps? i also found the no-smoking policy in the garden rather odd. having to puff away by the front door didn't exactly scream 'historic charm'.
