The cooked breakfast was lovely. The staff were professional and friendly. The room had character with beams and a nice riverside view.
I found the superior room lacking character, and it felt a little tired. The double bed was like it was only 4ft wide, uncomfortable, and the pillows needed more stuffing.

the location was quite good (right by the river).
The breakfast was a letdown. I found the coffee terribly weak and the cooked items tasted bland. there were limited options available, and i really expected more from a hotel at this price point. this significantly affected my overall impression.
