loved every single detail!
friendly staff room decor great atmosphere needed room
The room decor was fine, full of cute, interesting features i had never seen before! the staff were super friendly upon my arrival and explained everything clearly. The room had everything i needed. i found the pub to have a great atmosphere, especially with locals meeting after work i'd totally recommend a stay!
my only minor issue? the shower pressure wasn't the best, it could have been a little stronger! everything else was spot-on, though.

Admirable Stay
updated rooms excellent cleanliness quick assistance practical location
The location proved quite practical. It has proximity to key areas. The recently updated rooms are noteworthy. I found the cleanliness excellent. The staff offers assistance in a quick manner.
The stairs to the upper floors are somewhat steep. The ascent poses a challenge with luggage. I recommend requesting a lower floor if accessibility is a concern.
