mixed bag of experiences
faulty tv awful shower
The staff were lovely and friendly, nothing seemed like too much trouble.
I found some aspects disappointing. The tv only had one channel working. It kept buffering. The shower was awful. It went from freezing to scalding, with a trickle of water coming out.

The staff were very helpful. Breakfast was included and that was great. The location was amazing in the center of the town.
The room was small. The bedroom was really noisy because of the building ventilators. The stairs to get to the room were steep and narrow.
