cosy bedgood breakfastkind stafflimited parkingpermit parkingstreet parking
the beds in the twin room were SO cosy. breakfast offered many options, and it was good. the staff helped suggest places to visit, and it was so kind.
the parking was quite limited in the car park. i noticed other guests were asked to block others in. this seemed like it could be a problem. street parking required a permit, and THAT was inconvenient.
