I had an enjoyable stay here overall and initially thought the hotel was in a great location and offered good value for money. However, one incident completely changed how I felt about the experience. While staying in my private room, I was in my private bathroom when a member of the cleaning staff opened the bathroom door onto me unexpectedly. I had just flushed the toilet and was washing my hands at the sink. I was shocked and immediately asked him to leave. Instead of leaving straight away, he remained standing there clearly waiting to access the bathroom, and I had to ask a second time before he eventually walked out. If he had entered only seconds earlier, he would have walked in on me actually using the toilet. As a solo female traveller, this was extremely uncomfortable and honestly quite frightening. After he finally left, he also left my bedroom door wide open, which added even further to my discomfort and anxiety. The following day I reported the incident to reception before leaving. The staff member did apologise on behalf of the cleaner, however the response felt dismissive, and un-emotional. There was no reassurance that the issue would be addressed, no acknowledgement of how inappropriate the situation was, and no effort made to reassure me that guest privacy and safety are taken seriously. It took a lot for me to actually say something.... and now I wish I didn't even try. It’s disappointing because aside from this incident, I had enjoyed my stay. But experiences like this completely affect how safe you feel, and safety and privacy should be a priority at any accommodation — especially for women travelling alone. I hope the hotel takes this feedback seriously and ensures better respect for guest privacy and clearer procedures for staff entering occupied rooms in the future.

“Good location but basic room”
The room we had was ok but a little damp. Location great. Lots of character. We reserved parking and paid but was full when we arrived. Staff said park on st, but time limits and pouring rain made it stressful.

Great location, in a quiet area, but close / easy to get to entertainment, restaurants, pubs etc. Beautiful and charming historic building. We only stayed one night, in a small but comfortable room with ensuite. Receptionist / staff welcoming, knowledgeable and very friendly. Would stay again, if more than one night I would get a bigger room next time. Overall highly recommend 🤗
