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.

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 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.
