Parking Woes Frustrate Guests
Parking in Keswick is a nightmare and it's no different for this hotel. It is challenging to come across any parking space near the house and you're likely to find yourself driving around for quite some time, waiting for a spot to open up.
negative:
Small Rooms and Lack of Amenities
Rooms are a bit cramped and the furniture is not the appropriate size for the room. The beds also feel too small to be comfortable enough for two people for sleeping. It's also important to note that this hotel does not provide basic toiletries in the room.
negative:
Narrow and Noisy Hotel
This hotel has two flights of narrow stairs which can make it quite difficult to navigate if you have a lot of luggage. This home can also be rather noisy if full of guests, as the walls are quite thin and you can hear everything happening in the adjoining rooms.
