central location friendly team great breakfast dark room erratic plumbing early noise
The location was central. The hotel made accessing local attractions easy. i found the team helpful and friendly . breakfast service stood out. The lady welcomed everyone with a big smile.
the room felt quite dark, i think better ventilation would help. i noticed the plumbing was erratic. noise from barrel deliveries woke me up early one morning at 6am.

historic stay!

big size convenient parking comfortable night straightforward exploring
i really liked the big size of my room. the fans were already in place, they made my night more comfortable. parking nearby was very CONVENIENT. exploring from the hotel was straightforward for me.
access to the second floor bedroom required using two very windy and steep staircases, a bit difficult for me because i have mobility problems.
