Acceptable Stay

helpful staff convenient location relaxing garden narrow staircase small room low beam
The staff were helpful. The location was convenient. The garden offered a relaxing space. Breakfast was excellent, especially the fruit and granola. I was able to enjoy my stay.
The staircase IS narrow, which could present an issue for those with mobility challenges. The room was small, with a double bed. I noticed a low beam in the bedroom. It posed a head-banging hazard.
