Enjoyable stay

Enjoyed our stay! The staff are all kind and helpful. We enjoyed the sitting area on the 3rd floor near our room as well as the outdoor terrace. Our room was clean. We had a refrigerator but not a microwave. There was a coffee maker but we did not use it. They gave us a discount card for a coffee shop down the road which was cute and very good. The beds were quite firm which for me wasn’t the most comfortable but that just comes down to preference. I would definitely stay again.
