Ideal for a quick overnight stay. We were only there to sleep. Room was quite basic but had the essentials and was nice and clean. Bathroom small with no window but served its purpose. Friendly staff at check in.

Average at most

Host was pleasant and said to ring if we needed anything. It said breakfast was included but didn't get given any details to where to go for breakfast. I saw others saying you had to go to a cafe up the road but I wasn't given any information. Beds were very comfortable. The shower was mouldy and only trickled out. It was ok for the few hours that we needed the room for.

No heating

Room was very clean and well presented. I booked a king size for one night with breakfast, was told on arrival they didn’t do breakfast. We fell asleep around 9pm I woke up about 12.00 very cold no heating was on and quilt was only 10.5tog. This let the stay down will not rebook

We had booked a twin room, however on the day of arrival the owner has painted the room, so we ended up both been put in double rooms. The rooms we stayed in were very clean, offered tea and coffee making facilities and en-suite.

Accommodation was clean and all good, host was lovely and helpful, breakfast was served in a cafe next door, the food was good, just a bit strange going to a cafe, would probably be better to just advertise as room only

We had a ground floor room which was nice and clean but didn’t have an outside window which was a bit strange. The included breakfast was actually in a cafe next door to the property. Good location for the Open Air Theatre.

Does not serve breakfast !!

Booked as breakfast included but was told on arrival no breakfast is provided. No discount or refund for breakfast , just told no , we don’t do breakfast. Basic room , shower was very hot and not powerful at all , it was a mission trying to use it without getting burnt. Room clean enough and we slept ok . No parking , the street is crammed full of cars , we got lucky squeezing into a spot down an alley but it’s not ideal. We booked for location for the open air theatre , it’s perfect for this only 5 minutes down the road. It doesn’t really seem to be a manned hotel , I texted the guy with our arrival time and he was there to give us the keys but we never saw anyone after that. We wouldn’t book this place again purely for the breakfast issue
