Convenient Location and Friendly Service

quiet room comfortable bed quality breakfast helpful staff

I enjoyed a quiet twin room overlooking the garden. The bed was comfortable. A really good quality full english breakfast was available. The staff was helpful. They even let me leave my bags there before check-in which was really convenient.

The shower cubicle felt a little tight.

dated room narrow stairs

the location was close to buses that go to the airport and city center.

The room was a bit dated, and the bathroom felt very small. we had to open the door to brush our teeth as there was not enough space. It was a nuisance. also, the stairs were narrow. This could be problematic for older guests.
