    ineffective heating

    The staff was quick to respond to issues.

    The room was dreadfully cold during my stay. The heating system was inadequate despite the low temperatures outside. I voiced my concerns but received no genuine apology or remedy. I felt neglected!

    The Budget Twin Room was spacious and clean, providing a comfortable bed for restful nights. Lynn, the host, was incredibly welcoming and offered valuable local insights that enriched my stay.

    The breakfast options were limited since the DIY kitchen didn't provide traditional dishes. the shared bathroom had flushing issues that needed attention.

    friendly service

    Consider bringing your own breakfast items, as the kitchen is limited for cooking. The nearby Co-op has a good selection for self-catering.

    bathroom issues

    It’s not all bad, but it’s not all good

    The innkeeper was exceptionally helpful, providing insights about local sights and ensuring a clean and quiet environment. The budget-friendly room was well-equipped with a kettle for a comfortable stay.

    The breakfast options felt limited, as the DIY kitchen offered little for a traditional meal. the shared bathroom had persistent flushing issues that were inconvenient during my stay.

    Had a good stay! The room was clean and comfy. The breakfast setup was convenient—great for a DIY meal. Lynn, the host, is a gem, super helpful with local tips. Just a bit chilly at first, but it sorted out after a chat with her!

    inadequate heating
    flushing issue
    limited breakfast options

    The Budget Twin Room was spacious and clean, providing a comfortable bed for restful nights. the heating was inadequate, leaving the room uncomfortably cold, especially on the first night. The shared bathroom had issues with flushing, which required multiple attempts to resolve. For breakfast, the DIY kitchen had limited options, and I missed a more traditional start to the day. The location was convenient, with a Co-op nearby, which was helpful for self-catering.
