Unprofessional and unfriendly owner who verbally abused me down the phone when my train was cancelled and I did not arrive at the guesthouse. I was still charged full price for something out of my control. Do not book, not even if desperate.

A great location close to the centre. The room was seperate to the house and was like an extension with a bedroom, bathroom and seating area with fridge.||Breakfast of cereal, milk, croissant, cheese, jam etc in fridge.||||The only negative was that the room was on a busy road so there was traffic noise.
