The young couple running the business are very good. I liked the deal with the included breakfast: fill in a form when checking in (before a certain cutoff time), and your selections will be delivered to your room before 7pm. With fridge, toaster, microwave, electric kettle etc provided, plus crockery and cutlery, it’s a very convenient way to handle this. You eat when it suits you, not at a specific predetermined time.

Nice place and room lots features-but sadly I guess due to housing shortage or DV or who knows, people seemed to be living there-I have bit too much empathy, PTSD triggering when see people on hard times. Went home feeling guilty-stupid I know. Will return as no complaint business just lot people seemingly on hard times.
