a lovely stay

perfect locationeasy accessspacious roomnoisy road
The location was perfect for exploring. it was an easy walk into the city centre and the bus routes were easily accessible. we also appreciated the proximity to cheap car parking. It was just a short walk away. the room was nice and spacious.
The road outside was a bit noisy. I would request a room at the back if i stayed again, for a quieter experience.

room fancigarette smell
The room had a fan and I didn't melt which was fine by me.
The cigarette smell was too much upon entry. I think someone was smoking nearby. This made my asthma act up and I had to find a new place for my second night because I am allergic to cigarette smoke.

a precious escape

great locationfriendly ownernearby car parkcomforting embrace
the location charmed me, just a half-mile stroll from the heart. a nearby car park offered such convenience. roger, the owner, greeted us with kindness, so friendly and helpful. it seemed like a return to a comforting embrace, a memory i'll always cherish.
A very slight inconvenience was the absence of room service. It would have added a touch more ease.
