“I found the location genuinely appealing, nestled just a short walk from the town centre, and the inclusion of free onsite parking a definite advantage. Breakfast service struck me as notably efficient and friendly. While a refresh could elevate the rooms, they are more than comfortable enough for a pleasant stay.”
