I love the staff and they are so nice but the rooms aren't very clean and my pillow cases had hair all over them when I called them they did come and change them but behind night stands and tv stand and bed there is loads of dirt not sure who is doing the cleaning but they should have a talk to them.

Well situated and good for discovering the area. Needs a bit of an upgrade, parts were looking tired. Doesn't live up to its history (we were in the annexe rooms, maybe the main rooms do). Brunch only available at the weekend.........doesn't say this on the website - please update this. Tiniest bath towels of our entire trip........ please get towels that actually cover. Restaurant was very good and the staff in there were great.

The property is beautiful and the staff was lovely. Lots of hot water and great pressure. It's close to everything and has a beautiful park like water front view. I'd stay there again. I just wish that the bed was more comfortable.

What a great hotel! Historic property nicely made into spacious rooms. Beautiful landscaping and large yards. The walk along the river was mystical. The only negative is that I asked for our room to be made up (we stayed 2 nights) and it didn't get done, so we had to go to the front desk for towels and toilet paper. Make sure to visit Cosby's garden Centre. It's close and absolutely magical. Our two day stay in Liverpool was super. We will stay here again ❤️ and book this hotel again. Thanks for wonderful memories.

Bed comfort -- good mattress and pillows, comfy

General report: The building is old, but well cared for. I like the ambience. Enjoyed sitting under the trees by the river in the breeze. Good service at dinner. Comfortable beds and I especially liked being able to open the windows. Bathroom is good condition. And the prices were very economical. Would go there again. Eleanor

Quaint Inn

It’s not a bad place and good location. Food in Restaurant is good. Beds are not comfortable and wifi is basically non-existent. Lots of hot water in shower. It’s 1960’s which is not all bad.
