In brief

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Room sizes vary by category — Standard rooms are compact, especially the singles, while Deluxe categories offer more space – choose accordingly if space is a priority.
- Breakfast rules on takeaway — One guest was disappointed that they couldn't take food from the breakfast café, so plan to eat on-site.
- Historic building constraints — The old building has charm but may not suit those expecting modern, minimalist interiors – the decor is period-style and dated in places.
- Potential night club noise — Having a night club on-site could mean some sound spillover, though reviews generally praise the quietness of rooms.
