sash bay windowbeautiful staircasesuper clean cleanliness
The one-bedroom apartment i booked on the first floor was fantastic. It was in a building joined to the hotel. the living room featured a huge double glazed sash bay window overlooking a quiet street. Architectural details like the staircase were beautiful. it was very large, freshly decorated, and well-equipped, i found everything comfortable and spotlessly clean.
the location isn't amazing. i had to park on a dark side street which didn't feel particularly safe.

Comfortable stay
superior roomlarge bedfaulty showerhead
We stayed in a superior double or twin room. the room had a triple aspect and felt very spacious. the bed was large and comfortable. It was certainly worth the extra money.
the shower head could benefit from being replaced. it was totally fine for one night though.
