Jacinta, Oct 2024
Pros (+) Room clean. Bedding, towels and toiletries were very good. Service was exceptional from every member of staff we came across. Tea and coffee on demand was fantastic and very quick service. Food in bar was very good and although I didn't have breakfast it looked amazing.
Cons (-) Room size was very small. I can appreciate it was a convent and it's probably a listed building so there is not a lot that can be done. It wouldn't stop me from staying again as everything else was great.
