    Nice and clean throughout. Host was okay and friendly. We didn't have breakfast or drink in the bar so not sure what they was like. Power points in the plugs near bed so that was a bonus. Beds was comfy nice and roomy.

    Very clean. Lots of little things that added up to a lot of care from the proprietor. Good breakfast, lots of choices of tea/coffee and an Alexa in the room. Ear plugs, not that they were needed as it was very quiet
