Decent Location and Warm Welcome

town amenities warm welcome daily replenishment outdated room plastic chair no breakfast
The location is quite close to the town's amenities. It made exploring very easy. The host gave a warm welcome and offered information about the area. The tea, coffee, and biscuits were replenished daily.
The room seemed a bit outdated to me. The furniture had a mirrored look, and the plastic chair did not complement it. The hotel does not serve breakfast (that's a minus). I would have liked some local restaurant menus in the room.

Excellent stay near town

convenient location cute host super clean room needed amenities
The location was really convenient, a short walk brought me right to the town centre. The host, Debbie, was cute, providing information about local attractions and the building's history. I immediately received a fan because it was a hot day. Everything in the room was super clean and it had everything I needed.
The entrance had rather strong artificial air freshener smells. Otherwise everything was PERFECT!
