The breakfast included continental options, and the host cooked eggs and sausage! The location is lovely, right next to the river. It is a short twenty-minute walk to the city. The room provided great value for the money.

Acceptable stay, but with drawbacks

non-functioning lightshabby decoration
The bedside light did not work properly. I brought this to the attention of the owner. The separate bathroom was underwhelming , vanity mirror light not working. The basin emptied slowly and the decoration looked very shabby.

i found free parking available, really handy! the breakfast included an excellent selection of fresh fruit plus meats and cereals breads. the room felt spacious and had a european flair. it was nice and unexpected.
The tv wasn't working. It seemed like there was no signal. the host mentioned his tv was working fine, but he couldn't offer another room, this was less than helpful. there were no blackout blinds or curtains, so sunlight woke me up early.
