Staff were lovely. Had to take luggage up 2 set of stairs. Very basic room and had everything we needed for the night. All window misted when waking up due to condensation in the room Issues- bathroom has no ventilation or fan. There was mould everywhere. Advertised photo online are deceiving.

Nothing special, just a small room perfect for a few nights, room was clean and provided everything needed for the time i stayed there. Area was very quiet, driveway needs a bit of a fix up but otherwise nothing to complain about.
