My stay was perfectly pleasant here. Every detail of this nicely appointed property was nice. The staff were hospitable and very attentive, as I could only expect. I loved the savoury and great breakfast served with local ingredients. The location was perfect and handy, near the Carlton Hill park, and my bed was very clean.
Their staff were abrupt.
