short taxi rideconvenient location
the location was central to the pier and bars. the train station was a short taxi ride away, very convenient.
my room had no plug near the table with the tea and coffee, so the kettle barely fit on the narrow shelf.

cute staffbasic family roompeeled sealant
the room was clean and the staff was cute.
i found the family room to be quite basic. despite the website's photo of a family room with two windows overlooking the common and the sea, my room had a view of the neighbours' back yards. the sealant around the bath was peeled away (a minor but noticeable detail).

The room offered an amazing view. The sight was quite amazing. The shower worked perfectly with plenty of hot water! I loved how clean and well kept the entire hotel was. Check-in was quick and the staff were cute.
My room was very basic. I found the furniture minimal.

The hotel does not serve food on-site. Instead breakfast is available at a local restaurant, the Farm Kitchen, a five-minute walk away. This arrangement allows guests to experience local cuisine.

My room overlooked the park and was quite spacious and light! The large windows let in plenty of natural light. I found it comfortable and quiet, perfect for a restful night.

Mixed experience at city hotel
park viewtorn curtainmold
the room had a good view of the park.
I encountered issues with parking. no permits were available upon my arrival around 6pm. the curtain in my top-floor room had a significant tear and showed yellow and brown mold near the top. This affected the overall cleanliness and maintenance perception. i also struggled with the shower. It would only function when the sink tap was running.
