The good: Picturesque old building, big rooms, good shower water pressure, nice bar/restaurant, food was good: the Thai Green Curry was delicious and the full English breakfast was good.
The bad: No WiFi in our room (we were at the end of a corridor), however step out into the corridor and it was fine, and it's strong in public areas. 5Mb down, 1Mb up. Caulking in the tub/shower going pink.
The ugly: Toilet did not flush. Told reception about the toilet and got a "oh thanks for letting us know", but it did not get fixed. While sitting by reception (so I could use WiFi) I heard other guests checking out and complaining about their plumbing too - one shower would not get hot and one was either freezing cold or scalding hot.
In summary: A nice old place but with some deferred maintenance. Better for tourists than hardened business travelers. read more
