clean area private bathroom breakfast absence old building
The room was big. It felt so good to come to a clean area after a long days walks. My bathroom there was completely private!
I would have liked breakfast there. The building felt old. I could not open the windows completely. I only tipped them a little bit.

Really good hospitality and convenient location
lovely staff spacious room modern bathroom
The staff was lovely. Our room was spacious, it included its own bathroom. The accommodation with our luggage was very accommodating. The bed offered great comfort and the bathroom was modern (I loved the design!).
The shower temperature needed some adjustment. It was either too cold or too hot.
Dining
9/10
A nice pub (I really liked it) is a short five-minute walk away and serves breakfast and dinner daily. There are also a couple of great Indian restaurants within a similar walking distance for more dining options.
Rooms

The room was very spacious and clean with plenty of tea and coffee available. It had all the amenities I needed. It seemed like a home away from home. (I loved it)
