cozy stay
friendly staff delicious breakfast spacious beer garden
The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful, especially. I appreciated the morning breakfast, it was delicious and set me up for the day ahead. The beer garden in the back was a real bonus and HUGE! It had plenty of seating.
The tv was on the wall at 90 degrees to the bed. This made it difficult to watch comfortably from there, that was not convenient
