Adequate stay overall
breakfast option hot breakfast onsite parking high price fewer amenities city center
The breakfast included many options. It was hot and freshly prepared. Parking was easy because it was on site. The location was also good. I could walk to the city center.
The price felt quite high for a B&B. I have stayed at hotels with more amenities for less money.

made-to-order breakfast available parking kind staff outdated room loud noise non-functional heating
The breakfast was made-to-order from a menu, a definite plus. parking spots were available. I parked in the back of the b&b. the staff was kind. they gave me advice for spots to see!
My room was small and fairly outdated. people talked loudly inside the residence in the morning. This wasn't great for sleeping in. the room was chilly! i couldn't get the heating to work late at night.

the off-street parking was a real plus. the breakfast included scrambled eggs and bacon every morning.. it was a generous serving.
the stairs to the upper floors are narrow, they were a bit difficult with heavy luggage.

Charming B&B near City Center
safe parking helpful advice
The breakfast included bacon, sausage, eggs, and fruit. It was great! I parked my car safely at the back of the hotel which I appreciated. The owners provided helpful advice on local restaurants, so I felt very welcomed.
The room was not well insulated. It got hot during the day but cold at night. The bed had a winter duvet even though it was June. The shower temperature was difficult to regulate. I only had cold water.
