Really good Stay

clean roomprivate parkingcomfortable bedbreakfast options
I found a very clean room. The hotel provided private parking. The beautiful hotel bed was comfortable. It ensured a restful sleep. Breakfast options used an app for easy selection and were high quality.
I think the contactless check in they plan to introduce might reduce the personal touch of this family run hotel.
