The room had a double bed which i found comfortable. i liked the bus stop located right outside. It provided easy access to the city center. the included breakfast was a nice perk.
the room decor felt a bit outdated. the curtains were hanging slightly off the rail, which detracted from the overall appearance. i also noticed some mould in the shower area.

The breakfast was good with various fresh choices. Duncan was helpful when I first arrived. He gave excellent advice for touring the city. My single room was situated at the back. I found it very quiet despite the proximity to a busy road. The location offered easy access to the city center.
I noticed a little neglect regarding the front garden and some plants inside.

the staff was helpful. the location proved quite convenient, a bus stop stood just across from the premises. breakfast offered ample choices. the room's cleanliness met expectations. it was a suitable setting for a brief visit and i found it pretty adequate.
i found that the room was a little dated, it could probably use a refresh. the general maintenance could use some improvement. i still enjoyed my stay though.

The host was friendly enough at breakfast (the cooked breakfast was included).
The room was not what I expected. The photos online must have been taken a while ago, because it was a bit run down now. The bedding was old and the furniture looked grubby. I didn't realize the bathroom wasn't ensuite. (It was across the hall, requiring a code to enter.).
