mixed Feelings About My stay

poor wifi limited breakfast
the location suited MY needs, it was easy to find and accessible.
i was VERY disappointed BY the service. wifi access was a problem, and it seemed to be available only in some public areas, not in the room itself. additionally, the breakfast selection was rather LIMITED, especially for the price.

poor service bland roast
The atmosphere was completely lacking on my visit, and the staff seemed uninterested. The roast was bland and dry. An automatic service charge felt unjustified given the poor service and underwhelming food.

Good Stay

clean room garden view comfortable bed excellent meal
The room offered many treats for my dog and me. A beautiful quadruple room showcased garden and stream views. The bed provided great comfort , and the shower and bath felt clean and warm. I also enjoyed an excellent meal.
The building's age meant some low ceilings , so taller guests should be mindful of beams.
