reliable inn stay
english option friendly staff accessible location
the breakfast included a full english option and also scrambled eggs. the bar had live music one evening and the staff were very friendly. parking required a short walk as it was in a nearby lot but it was manageable. i found nearby restaurants and shops easily accessible from the location.
The check-in process could have been improved. The initial interaction felt a bit unwelcoming and lacked warmth.
