hot coffee comfortable bed good location busy road stained lino tired fittings

the breakfast was good with hot coffee and teas available.. i also liked the selection of hot food, cereals, and pastries. my room was clean, cosy, and the bed was comfortable. the location worked well, accessible from the city via bus and grocery options are close by.

the downstairs twin room window faced a very busy main road and i felt i couldn't leave it open at night. this made it very hot and airless.

adequate stay

easy wifi perfect size noisy road worn bedding

sarah and james were very cute. i spent an evening watching football with them and the locals. the wifi worked well, so i could set up my laptop and work from the room with ease. the room was a perfect size.

The room faced a busy main road. it was noisy. the bedding felt worn, and the mattresses weren't firm, so i had a backache the next morning. there was no food available in the evening. Only breakfast.
