The most comprehensive tea tray. Biscuits and even a chocolate each on arrival, were a very good extra touch.

clean room spacious room coffee-making facilities no view loud noise ground level

The family room was very spacious and also clean. I found decent-sized wardrobe and chest of drawers. These facilities helped me store clothes away easily. I also liked great coffee-making facilities.

I asked for A room with A view months in advance however, I was given the lowest possible room. There was no view at all. I could hear everyone walking up and down the stairs and talking. This happened even on the ground level. I did not get much sleep.

clean room helpful host poor view thin walls

The room was CLEAN. Everything was replenished when I went out for the day, a nice surprise. The host was lovely and nothing was TOO much trouble.

I asked for a room with a view, but I was given a room with NO view at all. I could hear people going up and down the stairs. I didn't get much sleep.
