I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean, comfy, and had a very comfortable double bed which made my stay even better. The breakfast was good, and the service was amazing. The only downside was the not-so-great sausages during dining, but overall, it was a fantastic experience.

The hotel is situated in a nice quiet area but not too far from the main hive of activity. The rooms are cozy with a good breakfast, but the sausages weren't very nice. The service is excellent, and the delicious marmalade stands out. The location is convenient within walking distance of the railway station, and the facilities are top-notch.

The hotel offers cozy rooms with a good breakfast and very comfy beds, but the sausages were not that appetizing. The service was excellent, housekeeping was attentive. The location is close to the town center with plenty of coffee shop options. The dining experience included a delightful Italian grilled meat dinner. The facilities were modern and convenient, though Wi-Fi was not included in the price.
