"Location was perfect - very central so easy to walk to anywhere in town (which is small). Nice rooms - not huge, but adequate. Service and breakfast were excellent and (given plenty of advanced notice) they catered well to some restrictive dietary limitations, so make sure to let them know of any allergies or intolerances when you book, and maybe send a reminder a month or so before your arrival. Front desk service and cleaning staff were all really helpful. "
