a decidedly average stay

dirty towelsnoisy courtyard
i wasn't thrilled with my stay. the bathroom had a leak i mopped, but they just folded the dirty towels back on the rack. the room was too hot and i couldn't adjust the heating. it was also noisy with people traipsing about in the courtyard early.

a reasonably pleasant visit

artistic décorvintage touchsteep stairsnarrow stairs
the family suite provided ample space for us. the artistic décor with a vintage touch added charm, and the pub garden was a bonus. the breakfast menu offered a wide variety of options. dinner was enjoyable.
the steep and narrow stairs were difficult to navigate, especially with luggage. modern decor inside felt out of place. the lighting in some areas lacked atmosphere.
