adequate stay with minor issues

poor ventilationharsh light
the bathroom lacked windows, and the ventilation did not function correctly. this may result in dampness problems in what is otherwise a modern bathroom. the bedside table lamps emitted a very bright, harsh light, and i believe a change in light bulbs would be beneficial.

A selection of continental breakfast items were available in the room, I liked the fresh milk and juice in the fridge. Parking was available. Made exploring the area easy and convenient.

Excellent Amenities and Thoughtful Touches

modern roomample spaceupstairs noise
The room decoration was modern and the en suite had everything needed. I found the bed very comfortable, with plenty of space and storage (perfect for organizing my travel gear). The breakfast arrangement was good. Continental items were provided, along with a toaster and microwave. Scones with clotted cream arrived on the second day, a lovely surprise.
I could hear noise from the host upstairs. This occurred primarily in the late evening, and it did impact my ability to fall asleep quickly. Quieter evenings would improve the experience.
