cooked breakfast quiet area good sized room
the breakfast service was prompt and provided an excellent cooked breakfast. parking was available outside the building. i could use the owner's drive because road spaces were limited! the room was a good size and very clean. it was located in a quiet area and was a short walk to restaurants.
The blind took a long time to get up and down. It could use an update.

Acceptable Stay, but Some Issues

weak fan messy check-in
Check-in was a bit of a mess. I had to ask for the details repeatedly. The code for the door didn't work at first. That was quickly resolved though. The room itself felt very small and stuffy. A better fan would have been nice, as the one provided was weak.
