The room was spotless, and the amenities were excellent. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. My only complaint is that I could hear other guests when we were both in our rooms. I was awakened on my first night when the couple on the other side of the wall came in from the pub. I know it's an older building, so I just dealt with it.
