6/10 Good

The room looked like it was recently decorated but there is deeper things that need attention. We were on the first floor of the stables , everytime you walked on it there was a loud creaking noise, felt sorry for the people below. The same was on the stairs & hallway, so loud it sounded like they were in the room. The furniture in the room is definitely in need of renewing along with the bed. The place looks impressive on the internet but we wouldn’t stay here again.
