The hosts are great. They reserved a car parking space (chris even met me before i entered). The room was super clean, including a spacious ensuite with fluffy towels. A king-size bed provided great comfort.
Instant coffee was served with a hot water flask at breakfast. Breakfast was warm, though it tasted good.

Really good Stay, Warm Hosts, Prime Location
comfy bedfriendly hostsugary cereal
I had a really lovely stay. The room was beautiful with a comfy bed. It offered a great night's sleep. It was well-presented, fresh, and clean. The bathroom had generous dimensions and was tastefully decorated.. The hosts are super friendly. They showed genuine interest in the guests. I appreciated the parking. It is a service not many hotels can offer.
I noticed the cereal choices were quite sugary. there was indeed a choice. I believe a healthier selection would greatly benefit guests.
