small room wet floor

The room was a bit too small i thought. the shower area was also a wet room. it meant the floor was always wet after showering. This made using the toilet a little unpleasant! i did not like the wet floor.

Absolutely Wonderful Stay!

warm welcome super clean room delicious breakfast thoughtful touch

The hosts greeted me warmly. I appreciated a super clean and cozy room. The attention to detail was evident across the hotel. I enjoyed a freshly prepared and delicious breakfast each morning. The room had everything I needed. I found the provided toiletries comprehensive. I especially liked the well-stocked bathroom. The breakfast options were amazing and tasty. The guest lounge was comfortable. I appreciated the natural light in it. I also enjoyed the option to relax in a sitting area in the breakfast room. I had access to self-cooking facilities which was perfect. The universal charger in the room was a thoughtful touch. I made use of the fridge.

The shower area was a bit compact. The toilet and shower being so close made the floor wet.

Decent Place to Stay

local recommendation warm greeting comfy bed small shower cramped space inflexible shower hose

Ken and Gill greeted me warmly. They had many recommendations for local spots. I appreciated the chat. they gave me plenty space. The bed was comfy and the room was very clean. The room also had chocolates.

The shower was small. The bathroom floor got wet when I used the toilet. Space felt cramped. The shower hose lacked flexibility so it kinked when I moved it.
