a stay with issues

bathroom light unlabelled kitchen

the location was easy enough to find.

Getting in was a problem because nobody was there. i had to phone and the room needed work. the bathroom light did not work and that felt unsafe. the kitchen downstairs was also not labeled well. I had to search to find things.

Fantastic Stay Near the Station

helpful staff lovely breakfast modern bathroom nice shower

The member of staff on the phone was helpful. I found it lovely that they let us stay a little later in the morning because we were heading to a wedding. The continental breakfast set us up for the day. The bathroom was modern and the shower was nice.

I noticed very slight marks on the walls, but they were minor.
