Disappointed.
Pros:

Breakfast was just ok, had the same thing for the 3days I was there.

Cons:

1.The hotel has a flight of stairs. There was no one to assist with bags on check-in and check-out.
2. Im lactose intolerant and request for lactose free milk. The buttermilk provided was depleted by other guests on day2 of my stay.
3. I had the same breakfast for 3days, there were less options.
4. The room did not have any views, just a high window, you can't even see outside.
5. The shampoo and shower gel were not replaced daily.
6. The stuff was not friendly at all.

Very good stay that has everything you need
Pros:

It is a very comfortable hotel with everything you need, staff is very helpful and the breakfast is very good. Also, the location is very convenient.

Cons:

Bathtub wasn't very clean and at some parts the house was a bit older but truly nothing to be concerned about. I still considered everything to be clean.

Value for money short stay
Pros:

Parking included, staff friendly and helpful l, and great location

Cons:

Not very accessible with heavy luggage, we had to carry them down a flight of stairs. Room in the ground floor is not insulated for noise so we could hear the early morning set up and conversations. The bed is a bit snuggle for two adults.
