The check in was smooth, the room was clean, comfortable and had sufficient luggage storage, wardrobe space. The bathroom was very clean, with fresh towels, and the room warm and cosy. Bed and linen were excellent! Thank you for an enjoyable stay. The room also offered high quality shower and wash products.
We enjoyed our stay. Nice room with clean and bright bathroom. Would definitely stay again!

The room was comfortable and well equipped but the whole place was a little dirty around the edges and could use a good cleaning. The breakfast was basic but adequate. Loved the UK-themed salt and pepper shakers on each table!

Convenient transport to and from property, with some dining options nearby. The property is quite old though and could use a touch up.

The host was wonderful there was Parking there was breakfast and the room was adorable. Yes, the property is a bit dated, but it was super clean and we loved our stay
Good value accommodation with an excellent breakfast. Centre of city is just a short stroll away, and bus stops very close by if you prefer to use the excellent public transport system. I'd happily stay here again
