mixed feelings about this inn
small roomstandard breakfast
The room i had was quite small, and i found the bathroom even smaller. breakfast seemed fairly standard. Nothing special stood out. there were no wifi details in the room and no instructions for the tv. i thought it was pricey considering what was actually offered.
