Charming Stay Near the Centre

convenient locationcoffee supplieshelpful owner
The location was very convenient. A bus stop was just a short walk away. My room had tea and coffee making facilities, and extra supplies were available if needed. The owner was communicative and helpful, which i REALLY appreciated.
The sink in the bathroom was quite small, it made brushing my teeth a little difficult.

The room had a view of the back garden and was quiet, SO quiet!! The rooms are equipped with coffee and tea facilities for enjoying warm beverages and there's also a television with access to Netflix for entertainment.
Dining

There is a shopping center with breakfast options within a five-minute walk from the hotel. This made it easy to grab a quick breakfast before heading out for the day. It was just what i needed.

super clean roomprivate bathroomfree parkingsmall roomlow pressuretiny sink
the room was super clean and well appointed.. it had a private bathroom. we found free parking out front and accessed the great bus system just minutes away. there are fantastic spots to eat close by, away from the bustle of touristy areas.
the room felt so small, it was hard to move around in it. brushing teeth was difficult, because the tiny sink sits over the toilet. the shower pressure was very low, and the cubicle was impossible to stand in comfortably.

Wonderful stay with parking!

I liked that there was keyless entry. The room was clean and big. The flat screen TV and good WiFi kept me entertained. The owner helped me a lot.
The sink was over the toilet, made brushing teeth a little tricky.
