Good, apart from the shower.
Owners were friendly, room was clean and had all we needed. Double bed was comfy but was just 2 beds pushed together which kept making a gap in the middle. Only real disappointment was the shower as the pressure was almost non existent. Overall it was a nice place to stay for the night.

Lovely lovely people, solid breakfast. It’s not the most modern hotel but I like that, feels real and honest. Parking is useful and 10 mins walk from city centre. My second time visiting and will be back

The staff was super helpful with tips of things to do in the city and also by allowing me to store my bag after checking out. The breakfast was very good, and the location is convenient, close to the train station and within walking distance to the city center.
