Great place to stay, handy to town centre and staff were warm and welcoming.

“Basic but clean.”
29 Mar 2025
Nice welcome but host was obviously very busy. Lovely to be upgraded to a bigger room, although sharing with two empty bunk beds was weird. Comfortable bed, good shower, room was clean but very basic. One towel each, no kettle and no fridge in the actual room. We have paid less and gotten those things, plus free toiletries, more towels and free tea/coffee/milk.

“Superb”
