Cute hotel with friendly staff and spacious rooms
We needed to be in the area and found this hotel to be in the perfect location. It’s in a really quaint area with some nice looking shops, restaurants and cafes although we didn’t go in any. The staff were all very friendly and the room was spacious. They were really accommodating of my dog and it was nice quiet so he didn’t get spooked by noises. My only one little niggle was that there was no fridge, but the staff stored my dogs food. If I needed to be in the area again I’d stay here
