This property is a very old property and has tons of character. The old pub and restaurant is very nice. The lawn between the hotel and the water has places to sit and watch the sunset. Rooms are updated and clean.

Decent

Pretty decent for such an old hotel. The restaurant is nice enough, but limited seafood offerings in the off season. If it weren't raining I would go sit in the chairs set by the Mersey river

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The host are nice people but the service and hôtel are horrible. Very very noisy and not well isolated. There were a number of persons partying Day and night, smoking and drinking on the balcony of rooms 127 & 128. It was a bad décision on my part to have stayed there in the first place after reviewing all the negative notices later.

Our bed was a double instead of the queen we booked. It could have been cleaner. Repairs needed. Also only 3 pillows for 2 and they were horrible. We do like the place a lot however dont arrive with high expectations.

Great Staff, Missed a few cleanliness details.

We arrived late, just a one night pleasure visit to do something out of the house without spending a fortune or traveling too far. The team were very great to let us check in late, there were no towels in the room, and they delivered them to us very quickly. They were also kind to sell us two bottles of wine as the NSLC was closed (small town problems) However, the floors were not swept, there was pretzels all over the floor, there was a years worth of dust behind the TV and there was only one coffee mug for coffee in the morning. The mattress kept slipping off the bed, we had to stick pillows between the mattress and the wall to stop from falling into the bed. Nevertheless, I am not writing this in anger, I just hope the hotelier sees and fixes these small details, as sometimes the details can be easily missed. I am in the same business, so I would like to know. I will stay again I'm sure in the future.
