“An excellent overall stay. Spotlessly clean and full of character. The double room was tastefully decorated with a comfortable bed. Central heating, an electronic key card, and a multi-channel TV were nice touches. The staff were highly professional, friendly, and well-mannered. The location was perfect, with restaurants within walking distance.”
