Solid Stay with Good Breakfast

good breakfasthelpful staffairy dining areanoisy ac unit

The hotel provided everything necessary for an overnight stay. A nice pub is located across the road, and it is very convenient for dinner. The breakfast was first class and the staff were helpful. The dining area is airy.

The AC unit in my room was quite old and noisy. I could not turn it off completely because of central control. This resulted in a restless night with limited sleep.

the room was a good size , and the breakfast offered enough variety to be acceptable.

the staff at the front desk seemed uninterested , and i seemed like i was bothering them with my questions. i asked about local attractions , but they just pointed me toward a stack of brochures without any real advice. the lack of engagement was frustrating.
