I received a lovely warm welcome. my room was clean and tidy, and it had plenty of tea and coffee. the decor looked lovely too. breakfast was very good. The times worked well, they weren't too early.

the lighting was a little dim in the room, so reading was tough. there was a desk light and a standard lamp, but they seemed random and not bright enough. the bedside lamp worked fine though

great menucigarette smokedismissive response

the menu offered some great choices and met expectations.

The room smelled vaguely of cigarette smoke, really off putting. the noise from the restaurant exhaust outside my window droned on constantly. I was told it would stop at 9:30 pm but started up again early at 7:30 am. I found their response dismissive, and it made getting a good night's sleep difficult
