Good Spot Near Town

friendly staff breakfast menu well equipped

Staff where friendly when I arrived. The breakfast had a comprehensive menu. My room had good bathroom fixtures. Restaurants where close to the premises, I found that very convenient. The room was well equipped too.

My room lacked a phone for contacting reception, and no one was present at checkout when I wanted to voice a complaint. I left my key on the desk at the end.
