The staff were VERY helpful. The room was clean.
The broken window was a PROBLEM. The noisy main road kept me awake off and on all night. The windows did NOT block out any sound.

The breakfast service was quick. Food arrived five minutes after ordering
The room faced the road and lacked double glazing. Traffic noise was constant even late at night i also found the bed too narrow and difficult to get in and out of the shower had a large step making it hard to exit

Cozy Cottage Charm

friendly staffconvenient locationself-service breakfastroad noise
I appreciated the hotel's location, which allowed easy exploration. The staff was friendly. They quickly moved us to a cottage when our originally booked room proved too small for my husband. I liked the self-service breakfast options, particularly the cooked breakfast, that the waitress served with such care.
The road was very noisy, even with closed windows, made sleeping difficult.
