We had hoped this hotel would offer a little luxury and had paid more (£148/night) than we would normally afford. We were disappointed. Our room was small, located at the very top of the house, up four different sets of stairs. The maid's room in an old country house, we mused. The room was very hot and stuffy, during warm weather outside (~25C). The bathroom was too small and the shower over the bath leaked water badly. But worst were the paper thin walls. After midnight, an inebriated couple returned to their room next door, singing out loud; their subsequent amorous antics left nothing to the imagination! The pool was good and easy to access. Breakfast was OK, but there was no service with a smile. Changing bath towels seemed to require a special dispensation at reception. Overall, it felt like hard work staying here. We won't repeat the experience!
