Negative Reviews
negative:
No in-room coffee.
Guests hoping for an early morning caffeine hit many find themselves disappointed. According to reports, guestrooms are not equipped with a coffeemaker of kettle, meaning you'll have to wait until breakfast for a hot drink.
negative:
Set breakfast time can be awkward.
While breakfast at the
B&B is generally well-received, a number of guests find the set breakfast
time to be somewhat awkward. With breakfast served at a designated time, guests
cannot always make an early start on their sightseeing, while hot water is
sometimes at a premium as everybody gets ready at the same time.
negative:
Not all rooms include en-suite bath.
The William Shakespeare room does not include an en-suite bathroom, a detail that has proven unpopular with some guests. While a private bathroom is available for those staying in the room, the facility is reported to be down the hallway, with guests having to pass the dining room in the process.
