The guest house enjoys a great location, offering a quiet setting that's still just a short walk to the town center.

excellent stay close to town

convenient locationfiltered coffeeon-street parking
I appreciated the convenient location. It was a short walk into the town centre. the breakfast was fantastic. I especially liked the lovely filtered coffee. i also received a nice piece of bread and butter pudding on my departure day. wifi was available without needing constant log-ins.
the on-street parking near the hotel was sometimes difficult to find.

Adequate Stay near Town Centre

town centregood selectioninformation packmold presenceon-street parkingneeded refurbishment
The location offered easy access to the town centre. It was a short walk. The breakfast included a good selection of cereals and juices. An information pack in the room provided details on local bus times and nearby attractions.
The room lacked cleanliness. Mold was present throughout the bathroom and a deeper cleaning seemed needed. I found on-street parking difficult. I had to compete with other tourists and local residents. The room needed a refurbishment.

the location, it's a short walk to the town center. the breakfast included local produce and was good. i was able to park outside the building, i think that was good luck.
the silicone in the shower had blackened. i felt it need a steam clean to remove the dust on the shower steps. i thought the pillows were hard.
