The staff seemed young and enthusiastic. They were polite. Cleanliness received significant attention. I noticed this throughout my stay. The room presented as clean. Breakfast looked excellent to me. The hotel looked quiet. The room seemed large. Everything looked super clean. The bed felt comfortable to me. The room felt spacious. It also seemed spotlessly clean. Homemade shortbread impressed me. A decanter contained water. I found the bathrooms lovely. Staff seemed child friendly. Beds looked comfy.
The website mentioned no parking. I paid for parking nearby. Free parking became available outside from 6pm to 8am. The room felt warm. I found the location too noisy to keep the window open.
