Central Stay

period furniture walk-in shower tasty breakfast
Check-in was simple. I found period furniture in the room that added character to the place. The bathroom included a walk-in shower, which I enjoyed. The breakfast was very tasty, and the range of options was a plus.
The room was very hot , so I had to turn the radiator off.
Dining
10/10
The breakfast had many choices and items were ordered the day before , so the food was brought straight to the table. The staff offered hot drinks and ensured we had everything we needed.
Facilities
