“My recent exploration revealed rooms that are a real step up, newly kitted out and remarkably comfortable, particularly the beds. The central location is a significant advantage, placing you right in the heart of things, though street parking isn't on-site, nearby free options are readily available. It's clear a lot of thought has gone into the refurbishment, and the hosts are noted for their helpfulness, making it a genuinely welcoming spot.”
