The cooked breakfast was excellent. I especially liked the selection of items. The secure off-street parking was very convenient. I found the room quiet and the staff cute.
The room was warm because it was above the kitchen. An extractor fan hummed when the kitchen was in use. The toilet seat was also loose.
