Double booked me!

I didn't get to stay at the hotel because they had double booked the rooms. I made a booking at around 11am the same day but when I arrived they told me they didn't have a room for me. Not only that, but they were pretty unapologetic about it, asking why I didn't call them! Then they went on to say that they are a small place, and because the wife was shopping and the husband was playing golf they couldn't be expected to monitor the online bookings all day! It is called a smart-phone. Thankfully they did find me a room at a guesthouse nearby and drove me there.

Excellent place and so near the university

As my stay there was excellent I however experienced some inconvenience regarding internet access - which is crucial when working away from office - one of my criteria for choosing the hotel was that it offered free wi fi access - which however it did not reach my room.

We stayed a total of six days in this very friendly B&B, an old house located in a pleasant area. Rooms are large and comfortable. Very good breakfasts. We would be happy to return.
