Charming Hotel with Historical Ambiance

convenient locationreasonable pricerenovated roomgood shower
The location was indeed convenient, near the town center. The car park behind the pub cost only £5 per night. I found it quite reasonable. My room had been recently renovated, so it felt both modern and comfortable. It included USB plug sockets. The shower was good, I could actually open the window in my large room.
The staff seemed a bit stretched, though they remained friendly.

The breakfasts were satisfying. I found tasty products, skillfully prepared. One can order breakfast in the pub. It creates a relaxing atmosphere. I recommend the pub food also.
Facilities
8/10
The hotel's history is visible in every corner. I noted ancient wooden beams and cobblestone courtyards. Parking on site is very useful. I considered this a distinct advantage. The WiFi connection enabled smooth remote working.
