Great find.

Fantastic little find. Friendly, quiet, clean. Cheaper than most hotels. Breakfast included was an extra surprise and bonus. If I’m in the area over night again I’m certainly checking here for availability

Poor standard of amenities- tiny shower, and everything got soaked during shower, toilet was stained and old. Walls falling apart and gaps in grouting and moulding. No ventilation in bathroom and poor ventilation in the room. Windows need opening but located on ground floor so could not open at night. No bedside lamp and room was dark. Bed was great but a little damp. Slept very well as it was quiet and comfortable

As expected, no thrills but clean and comfortable. Would avoid in hot weather though as the rooms are well insulated.
