A very good hotel with excellent breakfast, exceptional cleanliness, and friendly staff.
Pros:

The breakfast is excellent, and guests can order freshly prepared hot dishes if desired, which is highly recommended. Delicious. The cleanliness of the rooms and other facilities is exceptional. The location is good, with the option of taking food away and enjoying it outdoors or in your room, as the hotel currently does not serve dinner. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

I would come back and stay here again.
Pros:

I had 3 rooms booked, we were attending a wedding. I called up the day before to ask about an early check in and was told the hotel was busy but they would get at least 1 room ready so we could all get changed, when we arrived all 3 rooms were ready. Very polite, helpful and happy staff. Drink in the bar was nice on the day of our arrival. Breakfast was lovely and plenty of options to choose from. Location of the hotel was on the main street in the centre of town. Rooms were very nice in an old and quirky building, my room had a hugh stone balcony.

Cons:

Bed was a bit small but very comfortable. But definetly not a problem.
