The room presented loads of character. A walk-in shower was large in the super clean bathroom. I found the bed huge and comfortable, contributing to a restful stay.
The hallway light filtered into the room around the door, making it a bit too bright at night.

The staff was helpful and friendly .
The twin room I booked felt quite cramped. The shower barely produced a trickle, oscillating wildly between freezing and scalding temperatures.. Washing my hair proved utterly impossible given the conditions. Breakfast pastries arrived in plastic wrappers, a disappointing and cheap touch considering the price.
