Good value for money in a convenient location
Pros:

I spent 5 nights at Cozy Stead, and everything went really well. The staff is super friendly. I had a problem with my shower, reported it and they fixed it the same day. The room was very spacious. One evening I had dinner there and the food was good, I liked it. Overall, a convenient location and good value for money. Recommended for short stays.

Cons:

The water pump is very noisy, so I'd recommend bringing earplugs if they give you a room close to the kitchen. It wasn't much of a problem for me, but worth mentioning in case it is for others.
