Very clean and well fitted out. Lots of nice touches, the cookies on the stairs well were super.
The guess lounge was a nice space to grab a drink.
Checking in was very slow for us. I would re-visit

Efficient air conditioning, very comfy bed and pillows, plenty of hot water and good shower.
Bath plug in Room 7 needs some attention - slowly let the water out of my bath as didn't fit securely enough!
Excellent breakfast

Just got home from 2 night stay at Byfords. Fantastic place to stay. Really comfortable rooms, bed very comfortable so good night sleep. Very clean. All staff friendly and greeted with a smile. Breakfast was great with lovely choice of food. Only one thing to say was please replace the shortbread biscuits for 2nd night as they were delicious with a cup of tea at the end of a long day. Other than that faultless.

Room was clean, well appointed, a bit tight in places, but we knew that, it was in the loft eaves after all, clothes storage would have been a problem if we were staying longer as limited hanging space. otherwise Byfords has always been a great place to stay.
