lovely stay!
convenient locationuseful parkinghuge bedavailable coffee
the location is really convenient for accessing the town. the parking behind the building was so useful, especially in a busy area. the size of the room was great and it had a very huge, comfortable bed. plus, i loved that there was plenty of tea and coffee available to help yourself to!
I did struggle a bit to pop the keys back in the outside box upon departure. It took a few tries.

the room was tidy with tea and coffee.
the location was not ideal, especially for those without a car. there were no shops nearby and the walk to town was quite long. it was also mostly uphill on the way back.

clean roomsteep hill
the large double room was super clean and very clean. the bed was comfy and i had access to plenty of tea and coffee in the hallway. a short walk into town was nice, but the return walk included a very steep hill.
The outside light wasn't on when i arrived back so i had to use my phone light. It was quite dark.
