Really good Hospitality and Convenient Location!

excellent parking complimentary refreshments amazing breakfast central location
Upon my arrival, Pete greeted me with really good warmth and efficiency. He quickly showed me to my room and the lovely dining area. Parking on the hotel proved to be a HUGE bonus! My room offered plentiful tea, coffee, milk, bottled water, and a good jar of biscuits. I found the self-service breakfast amazing. It featured cereal, porridge, various drinks, fruit, yogurt, juices, croissants, and bread, along with a toaster and microwave.
The soundproofing was not perfect. I occasionally overheard other guests. This did not overshadow the overall positive experience.

cute host free breakfast easy location small room parking space owner car
The host was very cute. I appreciated the gesture of the free breakfast with toast, fruits, cereals, and drinks. The location was good. The staff was very nice. I found the place easy to find.
The room was small, and I could hear other guests moving around. There was no parking space when I returned from my outing. I had to block in the owner's car.

The shower had some grime on the seal. I understand a refurbishment is due. The room was small. I heard other guests moving around. Parking was problematic. There was no space, so I had to block the owner's car. This was not ideal. I woke up to ants crawling on the floor and bedding. I found it quite disturbing.
