Reviewer Type: Family With Children

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: I LOVED the location and the pub and history. Beds were comfortable and linens all felt very new and luxurious. Loved the old key to the room. I am so happy that they are keeping this place alive. Very clean as well! Shower was nice!

Negative: It was a little rougher around the edges than I expected based on the photos on website and based on what the word "boutique" suggests but I would stay there again in a heartbeat. The two bathrooms/toilets are shared bathroom with a makeshift wall dividing and I was afraid the people in building across road could see me through window! Haha! Still, it was a better value for our family of four than the local hostel was and an amazing historical building in great location. Unfortunately there was an out of control party going on across the road at the hall that kept us up late. Fighting, drunks, and police! I understand that was related to a big rugby game and isn't standard so our bad luck! Regardless, we had fun spying out the window and watching the action. The outlet next to the bed could handle the lamp, or the electric blanket, or the space heater, or charging cell phone but not more than one at a time! In a way it is part of historical charm but maybe a power strip could be added? Or should be packed? Overall an interesting and positive experience that I don't regret and will remember warmly.

Summary: Rough around edges but worth it for historical building in great location and new linen!
