Riverside Dream

perfect locationmorning walkscity center
This location proved perfect. The river Exe was right next door. The morning walks were so wonderful for both me and my dear dog. The short walk into the city center was also a plus.
The staff seemed a little eager to end their shift in the late evening, this was not subtle.
Rooms
9/10
The room had accessories. I found a hair dryer, fan, kettle, and also a selection of hot drinks. Nice soap and water bottles were a treat and the king size bed was very comfortable. The decor was great, except some picture frames of scrap wood.
