The staff was quite attentive. They ensured my needs were met. The breakfast was a highlight. It arrived hot and the eggs were particularly well-prepared. The room was clean. The towels were large and soft.
I noticed the absence of a bar on the premises. The hotel did not feature a restaurant either. I was anticipating these amenities. Noise from the pub downstairs was noticeable. It somewhat disrupted the quiet atmosphere.
