a comfortable stay

friendly staffconvenient bus stopbeautiful viewshigh-quality breakfast
The staff displayed excellent friendliness and helpfulness. i discovered a bus stop conveniently located at the top of the road. It offered straightforward transport into the town. the views proved beautiful, and i spent time admiring the scenery! high-quality breakfast items were available daily.
I noticed tight parking conditions and angled bays. These conditions made maneuvering somewhat difficult.

nice breakfastglass doorextra parking
the breakfast was nice and filling.
my room was in a separate building near the carpark, and the door was mostly glass, i felt a little unsafe because anyone could see straight in. the room was very small, it felt more like a converted shed than a hotel room. also, i had to pay extra for parking, it felt a bit cheeky considering the room rate.

The hotel location suited my needs well. I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful . The breakfast was excellent (i loved the variety of options).
The room did not have adequate ventilation. I had to keep a window open. The window seemed shabby and was difficult to lock securely. I could hear every footstep from the floor above, a little disruptive.
