A Mixed Experience

hard bedweak fan
The lack of air conditioning was a real issue given the warm weather I encountered . A fan was in the room, it barely moved the air. The bed proved uncomfortably hard. These issues detracted from what could have been a more restful visit.

Excellent central stay

I found the historic building charming, especially the cafe below. Its proximity to the train station was convenient as I traveled without a car. I appreciated that all attractions were within walking distance from the hotel. The breakfast was great, with a good variety.
I had to pay extra for services I would expect to be standard. Replacing coffee pods incurred a charge.
