A WONDERFUL stay!
tasty breakfastsuper staffvibrant pubdirty carpet
The location is GREAT, a very short walk to the cathedral. The breakfast I had was huge and so tasty. Staff was super cute. I seemed like I was staying with family, they were AMAZING. I enjoyed the vibrant pub.
I noticed that the carpets in hall was dirty and VERY worn. The windows were rotting and glazing was poor. The bathroom seemed worn as well and could have been cleaner.
