Beautiful building and interior. We came for our mini honeymoon and got ungraded. We had a congratulations note with chocolates in the room and rose petals scattered on a king size bed. Large room, large bathroom. Decent breakfast but quite minimalistic for £20/person.

12 steps to get up to the main floor. With heavy luggage that was difficult. Rooms are nice but since the windows are single pane not very quiet. Lots of street noise.
