the location allowed easy access to town.

My 'standard double room' felt quite cramped. Two people could barely move. the bathroom seemed old and dingy. the shower pressure was weak, and the temperature control knob was faulty and unresponsive.

mixed feelings about this place

tiny spacesclean environment

The parking was a real headache. There were cars sprawled across multiple spaces, and the spots felt tiny. i definitely wouldn't recommend this place if you're not a confident driver. the room wasn't great, it felt outdated, though that didn't really bother me. but i couldn't shake the feeling that things weren't as clean as they should be.

honestly, i was pretty disappointed. my room, the 'small double room', was ridiculously small. i could barely move around the bed! plus, there was this weird damp smell, very annoying.

the staff were friendly and the breakfast had plenty of choice. (i especially liked the yoghurt with fruit and seeds!)

The carpet in the room smelled, and i tripped on some ripped carpet. also, the bed squeaked. Not the relaxing atmosphere i was hoping for, admittedly.
