a cozy stay

clean room fresh towels ideal location

I stayed here for a work trip and the family who runs the place is so helpful. ian, his wife, and son keep the place spotlessly clean. I appreciate that. the rooms are spacious, and i found new bedding and fresh towels daily. the location is ideal with excellent wifi access.

i noticed the microwave needed some attention, as it hadn't been cleaned recently.

Okay Stay, but Some Issues

strange odor terrible insulation

The location was acceptable due to its proximity to transportation.

The noise insulation was terrible. I heard everything. People next door talked loud. The room had a strange odor that i didn't liked.

faulty remote unavailable breakfast

the location near the city centre was decent. it was certainly accessible enough, i guess.

I discovered the tv remote did not function. That was a bummer. also, the wi-fi information seemed impossible to obtain. No staff looked to be present to assist. i was also unable to locate the holy grail. I mean, the complimentary breakfast.
