    Opt for a room with a bathtub if you enjoy long relaxing soaks, but be prepared for slow filling water.

    cleanliness issues
    poor maintenance

    The cleanliness needs serious attention!!! Dirty windows, stained carpets, and chipped doors left us disappointed. A deep clean and fresh paint could work wonders. Didn't expect a view of a poorly maintained shower either!!!

    charming ambiance
    fantastic breakfasts
    cold attic room
    pricey dining options

    The charming ambiance of the inn and the fantastic breakfasts. We faced some discomfort with the attic room being cold and a bit cramped, but the friendly staff and clean facilities certainly made up for it. Dining options seemed pricey for simpler dishes.

    The room featured vintage decor with a unique design that gave it character. The private en suite lounge offered additional comfort and space to unwind.

    The overall experience lacked a warm atmosphere. The bar was quite empty . Dinner service was prolonged, and the food served was lukewarm and not quite satisfactory. My partner's venison was tough, and kitchen staff wore casual attire. The noise from the street made sleeping difficult, especially facing the front, and breakfast included fermented orange juice which was off-putting. Checkout lacked any engagement or inquiry about our stay.
