tasty meat helpful owners

the breakfast included tasty meat from a local butcher. the hotel owners were very friendly and helpful (i really liked their attitude).

the floor in my room was uneven, so the bed had a slight tilt, which i found a bit unrelaxing.

mixed feelings about the stay

small bathroom careless decorating

the room felt a bit cramped, especially the bathroom. there really wasn't much space to put toiletries or anything. the decorating seemed a little careless. yes, i know it is an old hotel! but a bit more attention to detail in the paint job would improve things i think.
