the location was convenient. i could easily reach the city centre on foot. the interiors felt cozy and pretty. i was delighted to find fresh fruits, tea, and coffee available.
the hotel seemed to lack proper maintenance. i found the front garden particularly unkempt. i had to request clean cups. this only happened once . there were no amenities available for self-service cleaning.

Excellent Stay Close to Everything

central location fresh fruit comfortable bed
The location is very walkable to the city center and main attractions. Fresh fruit, tea, and coffee were available to guests (a nice touch!). The bathroom felt new and had all the essentials. I also found the bed comfortable.
The front garden did seem a little neglected.

The double room included cotton sheets and good pillows for a restful night's sleep. I appreciated the attention to detail, such as the fresh milk available for tea and coffee in the room. It was great to have biscuits too.

The code entry system. The recommendations for nearby breakfast locations were also helpful (I especially enjoyed the riverside spots!). It made it easier to discover the area.

charming stay near the center

great effort keyless entry crisp sheets
the room decor showed great effort with lovely touches i also liked the keyless entry system it was super convenient and worked really well the bed had crisp white sheets ensuring a restful sleep i appreciated the cleanliness throughout the room it was super clean.
the absence of a reception felt a little impersonal i had to carry my bags up to the room on the second floor the stairs were quite steep and narrow that was not ideal.

bathroom mirror lighting detail comfortable bed no check-in same code security concern
The room was very well appointed with great attention to detail. The bathroom mirror had its own lighting. There was also a little glow spot for those nighttime visits. The beds were super comfortable.
There was no one to check you in. The cleaner let us in. WORSE of all, the code to get in the main door and all the bedrooms are all exactly the same. Anyone staying could have access to your room, concerning!!

fresh cookies convenient location clear instruction
I found clear self check-in instructions upon arrival. the hotel offered fresh cookies each morning. They were delicious. the location was very convenient with a short walk into town. I appreciated that. i paid for parking nearby, but that was expected.
The room was quite small. Space for baggage was very limited!
