charmed by my stay

plant drinkvegan optionkind soul
The room offered everything i needed for a brief visit. i especially appreciated the plant-based drink option for cereals (a nice touch!). i hope they expand their vegan options further, such as vegan spreads or nut butter. the staff made food even after the kitchen closed at 8 pm. This was a kindness i won't forget.
the towels felt a bit old and didn't have that fresh, clean smell.

mixed feelings about my stay

clean roominadequate soundproofinglimited breakfast
the room was clean upon arrival, which i really expect.
i found the noise levels were much higher than i expected, especially late at night. the soundproofing seemed inadequate. also, the breakfast options were very limited, the quality of the ingredients wasn't great so i didn't appreciate it.

bad directionslimited parking
the directions to this place were shockingly bad! i spent what was like an eternity trying to find the car park. it's tucked away around the back and not signed at all, plus, it's basically next to the bins! and don't even get me started on the noise. i could hear everything, from the people in the next room to the staff yelling at each other at some ungodly hour. it was hardly a restful experience.
