"Well maintained, clean Victorian hotel. En-suites built well. Original windows kept to maintain the look but reinforced with secondary glazing."

"The newly designed rooms are very spacious, only suggestion I'd make would be to install some units with drawers, otherwise you're living out of your suitcase during your stay."
