Good

Liked: Location, river views, handy for town centre, free parking
Disliked: Not suitable for disabled or even those with walking stick. Lifts only take you half way so still have to use stairs. Had to change room as TV not working, replacement room had no clean towels, no toiletries & dirty toilet

Fab location. Needs a lot...

Liked: Location was fab!
Disliked: The hotel needed a lot of tlc. I bet it was really nice years ago. I don't know how they can charge as much as they do for a room. So expensive!
