The room was clean and tidy. All towels and bedding had a lovely scent. I asked for a kettle and received a good kettle along with tea bags, milk, sugar, coffee, and mugs. The service was excellent.
The front of the hotel had no clear sign. The bar area was empty. I found the bedroom small and cramped, with the bed pushed against the wall and no lamps near the bed.
