convenient tram stoplovely breakfastavailable barparking costguest parkingexposed pipes
the location suited me well with a tram stop conveniently close. it made travel simple. leah prepared a lovely breakfast. i also enjoyed having a bar available to socialize with other guests.
parking at the rear has a cost. it is £10 per car each day. some guests don't park well, this causes problems. the front had some pipes showing, and that could be a difficulty for some.

The room was very nice. the breakfast was excellent and a short walk took me to the south pier for a tram. billy, the owner, helped me park the car behind the hotel. nothing was too much trouble. He was an excellent host. i will definitely consider staying again.
