Solid Stay with Great Amenities

comfortable bedconvenient kettleavailable fans
I found the bed very comfortable. The room had an iron, a hairdryer, and a kettle. These items were very convenient. I appreciated the availability of fans, considering the warm weather, also there was heater.
I noticed the shower pressure was not optimal. It trickled out a bit.

The room featured a well-equipped setup and a very clean bed. The bathroom was quite nice. I found it easy to use. The included restaurant provided a good English breakfast. Simon gave good service in the restaurant. I appreciate that.
The bar was closed early one night because of not enough customers.
