We enjoyed our 1 night stay. We had a nice room on the top floor with a nice view. Being in the top floor and no lift we only took from the car what we needed to save carrying suitcases up the stairs.

The view alone was worth the price (which was also good). All the staff were very friendly too. The breakfast provided was great. It's in a quiet area but also not a bad walk to get to whatever else you need.

The room was clean and well appointed. The bathroom is tight, but water pressure is good! Food options for dinner within walking distance are almost non existent, so it's an adventure! Breakfast though is well stocked and there are options for everyone!

The room and bathroom were clean. Bed was comfortable and bedsheets spotless. Continental breakfast was available with a wide variety of breads, croissants, muffins and cereals. Parking on the street might be a challenge though since the street is narrow and cars are parked in both sides. Our one night stay was pleasant.

The double room we had was tiny as was the bed. Breakfast is a simple continental one. Location from town is ok, parking is on the street so be sure to get there before the residents finish work. Overall it was cheap and cheerful. If we were staying more then 1 night I would find something a bit more spacious.

Loved our stay here! Staff were nice, friendly and helpful! Breakfast was great! If there’s one gripe, I have to say was that the shower head in our bathroom was leaking hard so we needed to tone down the water so as not to have the water get out of the shower enclosure, otherwise the bathroom would have been flooded . But other than that, our stay was terrific and I highly recommend this B&B.
