Couple getaway success
The breakfast was cooked to order, absolutely fantastic. And they provided fresh ground coffee in the room, a nice touch that I appreciated. Oh, and the room had a good size and comfortable bed, not too much noise from other guests.
Wasn't really cheap but still fair for what we got.

missingWrote a review on 29 Septstained towel
Felt like I was walking through a time capsule of neglect—walls were peeling and stained from age, which really put a damper on the vibe. Bathroom didn't seem clean enough, with what appeared to be stains on the towel, and I missed having milk for my morning coffee. Heard loud clattering from the kitchen even during the night, which wasn't particularly soothing for sleep. Breakfast clearing up early due to a conference by 9 o'clock felt like a sudden last call, leaving me scrambling for the basics like coffee.

The room was impressively spacious with a beautiful garden view that added tranquility to my stay. The breakfast exceeded my expectations, offering a delicious start to each day.
Only slight shame is there is no bar as such.

Unique eco-friendly initiatives, Charming quirky hotel design, Well-preserved historic features
The lack of adequate wardrobe space is quite annoying!!! Shower facilities could certainly benefit from better maintenance to fix those ranting pipes. A little more attention to cleanliness wouldn't go amiss!!!

Absolutely loved the vast breakfast spread! Plus, being in a historic building with modern touches makes for a delightful stay. Nearby, I stumbled upon Gurkha 3 Nepalese & Indian Cuisine – a must-try for any foodie adventure!
The room's drafty windows were a bit of a bother and I found the sticky dining room tables rather off-putting. Just felt like it needed a wee bit more attention.
