“A friendly welcome, and great value for money.”
The location was very good. We were warmly greeted, and Denis was well organised. The room was well-finished and very clean. The bed was comfortable, so we had a good sleep and the selection at breakfast was suitable for our journey. So, very satisfied overall. Thanks,
