delicious breakfast great breakfast lovely host great recommendations small room little space cool room
Breakfast had a great choice. Everything tasted fantastic. I selected the cooked breakfast option! It was cooked perfectly. Karen was a lovely host. She was very knowledgeable about the area and gave great recommendations.
The room felt a bit small. I did not have enough space to move freely. My towels never fully dried in the bathroom. I found the room to be a little cool.
