needed hoovering lack of interaction

I noticed the hallway needed hoovering. the lack of interaction with the hosts was also disappointing. A lady just handed over my keys at the front door with no introduction. at no time was i offered breakfast, despite it being advertised, and emails about breakfast went unanswered.

good stay!

excellent breakfast comfortable room central location

Jo prepared an excellent breakfast each morning. It really set me up for the day. the room was very clean upon arrival and had everything i needed for a comfortable stay. its central location provided easy access to both the train station and the bus station, very convenient.

the on-street parking had fixed time restrictions, making it a bit tricky to find convenient parking nearby.
