the owners demonstrated really good kindness upon our arrival. they even accompanied us to a nearby shop to acquire a pram. the location suited our needs perfectly, and on-site parking was efficiently arranged for our vehicle.

The absence of storage, like cupboards, created a bit of inconvenience. also, the showerhead was not fixed. I found i had to hold it throughout my shower.

the staff was really helpful, they accommodated an early check-in for me. the location suited my plans perfectly! tea and coffee facilities were also in the room. i appreciated the parking arrangement.

there was a faint smell of smoke in the room, i think it came from the office downstairs. music played with a dull bass tone through the night, it wasn't loud though it was distracting. the hotel looks aged, it needs some repairs.
