Reviews
Rating | Positive Points | Negative Points | Reviewer | Stayed |
---|---|---|---|---|
3.5 star rating | Good location | Lots of stairs to get to room and no lift so would be difficult for frailer or older people with mobility problems. | 23 July 2013 | |
5.0 star rating | Very helpful, and as always, very clean. | I phoned the hotel directly to ask about booking a room, as on the website it states that room only for one night is £180. It also states on the website that it is £150 for DBB. That's why I rang. The information that I got from the hotel further confused me, as I was told that the prices for room only were right, and that it was an extra £20 for B B. So £190-200 for B B, or £150 for DB B? Regardless I booked the room through a different website and got the room for £100. Even after speaking to them directly and asking what the prices were, 5 mins later I got the room almost half price online. All I can say is that from now on I will not deal with them direct, but go through an agent. Shame really ;( | Mr Jeffles | 30 July 2013 |
