I had a delightful stay at this charming hotel tucked away on a quiet street. The ambiance was lovely, and the hosts were incredibly accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, and the spacious bathroom with consistent hot water was a bonus. However, while the internet was decent, it may not be the best for those needing a strong connection. Additionally, be prepared for some nighttime dog barking, which is quite common in the area.
