a treasure hidden away

good breakfastconvenient locationfree parkingfriendly staff
The breakfast was a good start to each day. Heather's friendliness shone through. the hotel's location proved convenient for exploring nearby restaurants. i also appreciated the provision of free parking, an added bonus. it was less than fifty meters away at the quayside.
the tight stairs made maneuvering luggage slightly challenging.

An Uneven Experience

cooked breakfastcold roomheater problem
The cooked breakfast was very nice. It made getting up worthwhile.
My room was really cold. The heater never came on so I had to wear a coat to bed. Getting hold of staff was difficult, and I had to call several times for the door code. I am very disappointed.
