Guests can explore nearby landmarks such as Frome Museum (0.5 km) and Victoria Park (0.5 km), or visit the Cheese & Grain for live music.

very lovely stay

good breakfast great location convenient bar

Breakfast was good. The location helped a lot. The bar downstairs was so convenient and a great spot for drinks. there is free parking. They direct you across the street.

The staff seemed not cute and abrupt especially when i ask to service the room after the first night. i was staying two nights.

small room sound insulation

the room was a bit too small for my liking it felt cramped with my luggage scattered around the floor the location above the bar also presented some issues as i could hear music and chatter until late at night the lack of soundproofing made it difficult to relax and unwind before sleep i hoped for a quieter more spacious room for a more restful stay the overall experience was just okay.
