I had to pick hairs out of the bath before I could run a bath for myself, not pleasant. I then discovered I had three itchy bites the next day, which I can only assume were bed bugs. I emailed the hotel straight away and they didn’t even bother replying.

This is by far the best place I’ve stayed at during our 8 day visit to the UK (London, Manchester, Liverpool, and Glasgow). The location is amazing, the service is top class, and Amy was so accommodating and suggestive to our needs. Shopping and food selections were just walking distance. Perfect place!
