Breakfast included turned out to be Bread/Cereals no cooked breakfast unless you paid £10. Excellent location, parking in street. Tiny room with hardly any space but It was fairly quiet. Disappointing really. Stains on the carpet and you could not adjust the shower. Curtains were thin and not black out curtains.
