“I see a riverside property whose charm seems best savored from its outdoor deck, drink in hand. It appears that its location, though scenic, may demand a premium, and the service perhaps warrants a closer look. However, its historical setting and individual room designs do suggest a unique experience.”

The location next to the river offered serenity. I found my room with a balcony quite charming with a swinging chair. Every morning, breakfast service provided a seamless experience with traditional options and bakery items.
The speed hump in the car park was a struggle. It was a minor inconvenience but worth mentioning.

The room offered a balcony facing the river Avon. USB plugs were located on both sides of the bed for convenient charging. The walk-in shower added a touch of luxury (loved it!).
The bathroom lacked proper ventilation, a minor inconvenience.

the location allowed easy access to both peaceful walks and city conveniences. dog-friendly policies were very appreciated, i always felt welcome. breakfast had varied options in a bright conservatory. the bedroom had quirky decorations and a very comfortable, large bed.
The landing motion detector took a bit to activate. Lights turned on after a short delay. i would have prefered a quicker response.

The included parking was useful, making it easier to explore the surrounding areas.
The room service was slow. I placed an order and waited over an hour for it to arrive. The food was cold. The minibar was not restocked daily, as advertised. Some items were missing after the first night. THESE issues impacted my stay.
