Nice hotel
Very spacious and comfortable room. Clean and plenty of towels in a large well equipped bathroom. The only drawback was a very noisy extractor fan. Everything else was exemplary.

Cosy hotel
Very cosy and old English style. Breakfast mediocre but that's what it's like at most hotels. And I have visited a lot of hotels in Europe.
