Room and staff ticked all the boxes BUT a couple of easy chairs or a sofa would have transformed the stay for two weary travellers looking to relax with glasses of wine.

The room was clean just a basic room we were happy with it. We only stayed 1 night. The front desk person was very nice and helpful. She let us know if we were going to eat out to do so before 8pm as everything closes by then.

I liked the quiet, secure, private, clean, relaxing, I didn't like the fact that there was no kitchen sink, which is why I didn't do any dishes, I refused to wash them in the bathroom. Apart from that, I enjoyed my stay

This is a very nice place to stay. Large rooms and very quiet. The only slight problem is that the shower doesn't have a shower curtain and there is no soap holder.
