the breakfast was lovely with locally sourced products. i also appreciated the comfortable bed after a long day. the staff was helpful in arranging a taxi for me.
the room felt a little dated with some signs of wear. my room was quite cold, and the heating didn't seem to function correctly. the instruction to leave the room key in the hallway felt insecure TO me.

a fairly decent stay
good varietyfruit selectioncooked optionsmall bedcramped ensuiteold towels
the breakfast included a good variety. i liked that it had cereals, fruit, and a cooked option. it also had toast.
the bed was very small for two people. the ensuite was built into the corner of the room, so it was cramped. the towels were old and hard.

Breakfast was quite good with a choice of cereals and fruit..
My room was quite dated, and the bathroom had visible mold. The window was broken, letting in a draft. The heating was inadequate. The radiators only stayed on for about 20 minutes was nice.
