a nice stay!

central location tea coffee clean room spacious room

the location allowed easy access to local attractions. the provided tea and coffee in the room were most welcome (a small touch that makes a big difference). i found the room to be clean and tidy on arrival. i liked the spaciousness, it was big enough for my needs.

i noticed the stairs up to the room were a little steep, so those with mobility concerns should be aware.
