Lovely hotel

The hotel was incredibly reasonably priced, we were pleasant surprised at how lovely it was. The room was warm and spacious with a huge bed, the furniture was solid work and great quality. The bathroom was clean and everything worked perfectly. The breakfast in the morning was lovely and we were served by a really polite and friendly waiter. Overall I couldn’t recommend enough.
