unique stay in former church

helpful staffconvenient locationgood foodpersistent noise
I appreciated the friendly, helpful staff. the location near local transport was very convenient. the downstairs bar, with its poetry night and good food, added a special touch to my visit. The food was AMAZING!!!
The noise from cars, motorcycles, and people outside made it difficult to sleep. Secondary glazing could improve the situation.

The building was historical, i guess. I didn't see any ghosts though.
The shower alternated between freezing and scalding. I never achieved a comfortable temperature. dry towels were also absent after the first day. plus, the staff seemed bothered when i inquired about it.
