a super clean place to stay

super clean roomconvenient locationplentiful parkingshort rail
I found the room clean. Every detail was considered. i appreciated bringing food back to heat in the microwave after a long day. parking was plentiful and conveniently located right outside the hotel.
the hanging rail was short in its alcovewith only five hangers. this meant i could not hang all my clothing up properly.
Location

the location provides a peaceful setting with a pub located at the end of the road and a nearby park. this arrangement offers both convenience and recreational options within walking distance.
Rooms

The room had a fridge, microwave, toaster, plates, and cutlery. There was even a can opener with a bottle opener. a washing up bowl, washing up liquid, sponge and tea towel were included. This shows great attention to detail.
