Excellent Guest House experience
early check-infresh smellclean roomnice touch
Ellie allowed me to check in early. I was attending an event nearby. The hotel smelled fresh and everything was so clean. Ellie offered to drive me to my event when I couldn't get a taxi! The room was well-presented and everything was super clean. A nice touch was the good supply of tea, coffee, hot chocolate, water, chocolates and biscuits.
parking proved somewhat difficult though. especially during peak hours.
