Confusing check-in process. The Formby itself looks lovely and I got great service from them, but at the Alexandra (where I actually stayed) staff were gruffly blunt, bordering on uncaring. A suggestion may be to advertise the Alexandra as specifically a boarding-house, and the Formby as a short-stay hotel.
