stained duvet cover bacon butty
the communal area had plenty of hot drinks available, ACCEPTABLE.
The duvet cover in my room had a STAIN. supposedly, the staff blamed the launderette, but it seemed like something they should have noticed when making the bed. the breakfast also DISAPPOINTED. It was just a bacon butty and eggs were not served.

underwhelming stay, some issues noticed.

missing shelves missing hooks
The location was fairly close to the city center. That aspect worked out fine.
The room was small. the bathroom was particularly bothersome. There were no shelves and also no hooks. these omissions seem especially annoying considering the fairly high price.

adequate stay, but some issues noted

limited breakfast options missing reception
the guest house offered a well-organized check-in process.
I found the breakfast to be quite disappointing. it lacked variety. I especially missed having fresh fruit. the constant emails from the hotel before arrival became excessive, especially considering no staff was present upon arrival. the reception area needed better attention.
