lovely walk family room parking availability cold room underwhelming breakfast unstable wifi

the location offered a good walk into the town centre.. it took us across picturesque water meadows. the family room provided ample space and comfort for my needs. i also appreciated the availability of parking across the street .

I found the room to be quite cold. there seemed to be no readily available way to adjust the heating settings myself. the breakfast was not particularly excellent. the spreads for toast were a bright spot. wifi connection wasn't stable.

the location is perfect, just a short, pleasant walk into the city center along the river (i loved the scenery!). breakfast offered good choices, and i pre-ordered the day before. the staff were friendly and cute. the room was clean and located on the ground floor.

Parking was a little tricky. I had to find a spot on the street.

the hotel offers a delicious breakfast with options customized the previous day, and the staff is very friendly and accommodating, which makes for a very cute experience. The building has a vintage look, and the surroundings are very nice with a park and a pond just next to it.

great location spacious room delicious breakfast

The location was awesome. It was near the mill pond, so i got a nice walk to town every day. our family room was spacious, and we got parking across the street. breakfast was delicious and filling, a perfect start to my mornings.

I was told to park in the pub car park next door. It was a little odd, especially as it clearly said not to.
