The settings of this hotel are beautiful and very tranquil. The architect of the building is just absolutely amazing, however, the furniture and fixings are a bit tired looking and could be upgraded. This slightly negative remark about furniture would definitely not stop me from returning because my overall visit was so relaxing and the cleanliness of the room was excellent. Finally, the food was great but service was a bit slow but extremely friendly. I'll be back.

I waited over an hour and 20 minutes for my evening meal and considering that there were very few guests in the dining area, I would have expected a quicker service

The cabin was close to where we needed to stay to connect with family. It was kitted out with what we needed for a short stay of three nights. The bathroom was tight but clean and tidy enough. Quite a long walk from the road down the lovely rural driveway (a bit awkward with no vehicle), we enjoyed seeing local wildlife but grateful it wasn't raining heavily.

The cabin didn't seem to be insulated and with the heat pump situated above the head of the bed it wasn't suitable to run overnight while sleeping. During our stay there was colder weather and there was a trade off between running the heat pump and having a breeze blow on you when sleeping or the cabin being cold. The shower holder was a bit loose and the shower sporadically went cold.

Breakfast was good although a bit pricey at £14. Hotel was clean and tidy and is obviously undergoing a refurbishment so the standard will only improve. Around 10mins walk to NEC which is what we were there for. Would definitely stay again.

Check-in was from 2pm however my room wasn’t ready until closer to 3pm. They make a big thing that you have to book the pool and can only use it for an hour, however when we stayed the staff at the pool didn’t check our names or room numbers so it was just a pointless phone call we had had to make 24hrs in advance.

Not much. The large flat screen TV with streaming services and the washing machine/dryer were okay, but the bad aspects far outweighed the good.

Almost everything. The windows were really old and not sealed properly, and little bugs and spiders were coming in. The bed was disgusting with stains and hairs everywhere, and it was a nightmare trying to get onto it because they had squeezed it into a space that was far too small for a double bed and there was zero space on either side, so you had to get onto it from the foot of the bed and then slide yourself backwards; and since it clearly hadn't been washed for some time, I had to just lay a towel down and sleep on top. This "studio" was so horribly cramped. You couldn't even swing a mouse in it, let alone a cat. And to add insult to injury, the entrance door was RIDICULOUSLY heavy, and it didn't even open up fully, so you had to squeeze yourself through whilst really struggling to hold it open. It was a joke, and it was complete false advertising because you get the impression from the photos that's it's more spacious; and it's confusing too because they were showing pictures of their larger apartments. They're deceptive and they're also downright liars because it said there was dishwasher, but there certainly wasn't one. It makes me SICK that I spent so much money on this pokey little hole, but I was ill most of the time and had no choice but to stay until I felt able to leave. Anyway, they've got a nice big chunk of my savings now so I hope they're happy. They're so damn lazy. They couldn't even be bothered to clean things properly and make it nice for a guest. I had to spend extra money on a whole bunch of cleaning products, but obviously I could only do so much. There was no way I was going to tackle those disgusting bed sheets, so I just had to lay one of the towels on the bed and sleep on top of it. All in all I bitterly regret that I ever booked it, and it's a big relief to be out of there. I think I can safely say that I won't be "hitting the hay" anytime soon.

Location is great, the building is very “historic” in a good way. Well kept and well equipped. Management very responsive and attentive.

Barely got any sleep. The management should really mention that there is an underground line right under the building and every 3 minutes the whole building shakes… Not going back. Not recommending. Crossed out all the positives for me!

Very uncomfortable matrass of the sofa bed in the living room. Sound isolation is very poor. Noise from buses and trams are heard all night. Blackout In the living room is terrible. If you sleep on the sofa bed, I bet you get up on the first sunshine in the morning. Despite all the above drawbacks, they still charge an additional 25GBP for the sofa bed linens. Yes.. you read that correctly. Not all necessary bed linens are covered in the tariff.
