Charming stay with excellent breakfast

easy check-in spacious room superb omelette
I found the check-in process easy and the staff cute. The room was spacious, and i liked the king-sized bed. Breakfast was the best part of my stay (the omelette was superb!).

spacious room varied selection friendly staff urinal smell missing dispenser mold ceiling
the room was quite spacious and came equipped with all necessary facilities. i found the dinner selection to be quite varied and the food was amazing!!! the staff members were both friendly and helpful. i believe the experience offered good value.
there was a strong smell emanating from the urinals in the men's restroom located in the reception area. i also noticed that one of the cubicles was without a toilet roll dispenser. the sink in my bedroom drained very slowly and the bathroom was dated with visible mold on the ceiling.
