Beautiful rooms, well appointed, spotlessly vlean and a fantastic location but thecesr plugs ard there for a reason. Its a lovely old building with lots of original features including a lag of sound-proofing of double glazing. But the place has so many pros, this minor con doesn't stop me recommending it.
