i found the staff friendly. the location is fine and very quiet. i thought this was the ultimate escape from everything. i liked the art deco design and furnishings.
my room felt very dark and dingy. the windows overlooked the back entrance, so there was a covering over them. breakfast was good one day and poor the next. the full english breakfast hardly touched a stove on the second morning.
