The breakfast was awesome! i asked for extra toast and they brought it right away. the staff was so friendly too. the room was clean. It had everything i needed!
The walls seemed thin. I could hear noise from other rooms! the shower pressure could've been stronger, it was a little weak for my liking. also? the car park wasn't lit very well at night, a bit spooky!

charming stay
super clean hotelclean bathroomfriendly staffsmall towel
the hotel was super clean throughout. the bedroom and the en-suite bathroom were both nice and neat. breakfast was well-cooked and presented. the staff were very friendly and helpful (always smiling!).
i found the main towel provided in the room to be a bit small. a larger towel would have been more convenient after showering. this small change could improve the experience.

acceptable stay, but some issues
friendly staffsmall roominconvenient layout
the staff was friendly.
the room felt small and the layout was not great. clothes needed to be hung in front of the mirror, that was inconvenient. the second mirror was too far from the socket. i also found that the bath towel was hung on a clothes hanger on a hook.
