Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Friendly hosts. Modest rooms but do not book if the breakfast is a selling feature for you. Bad coffee, undercooked bacon, white toast and canned fruit - felt like stepping back in time to the 80s when we didn’t know what a good breakfast could be. With so many good options near by for eating, focus on doing one thing well (good coffee!) and let that kitchen be for guest use instead.
