Charming Stay with Really good Service!

polite staff generous portion superb breakfast individual service
The staff was INCREDIBLY polite and accommodating. My fussy eating habits weren't a problem. The staff prepared a meal I thoroughly enjoyed. The meal portions were very generous, definitely worth the money. Breakfast was superb, offering individual service to meet different requirements.
The decor could use a slight upgrade, especially the single glazed windows, showing early signs of rot.

The hotel is centrally located in town, right across from a handy shop that stays open late. There are two bars and even a brewery at the back, awesome. The menu for evening meals looked good, and breakfast was amazing.

the staff was super polite! the rooms were quirky. i found the location central to everything. plus, the premier shop across the street stayed open late, a bonus for any late-night needs.
the decor felt pretty old! the shower did not work properly. also, the towels and bedding seemed quite old. but they were clean, at least.
