Central and Convenient Stay

central location free parking detailed instructions

The location is really central. I found parking easily on the street with free parking. Breakfast included a good continental selection. The host provided very clear arrival instructions.

The room felt quite small. I think a bit more space would improve the stay significantly.

Rooms

8/10

The room included a kettle, microwave, fridge, crockery and cutlery. I liked that washing up liquid was also supplied. The shower room, though shared, was consistently clean and tidy.
