Decent Stay
modern guestrooms helpful staff good shower bright floodlights farm view blocked view
I appreciated the modern guest rooms at the rear of the garden. My shower room had good features. The staff members were friendly and helpful .
I noticed bright floodlights from a farm marred the night sky. I found no nice views from outside garden areas. The hotel blocked all views from these areas, a shame.
