Awesome Stay!

charming host large room quick walk tasty breakfast

Camilla is super charming and cute. I loved talking with her! The room was quite large. It beat other places I stayed. It was nice and clean. A quick walk got me to the town center. Breakfast was tasty too.

The decor looked dated, but it was ok. Everything creaked. I mean everything. It was so loud.

The location is a block from the river and an easy walk to town. I found parking available. This was so convenient! It is a five minute walk along the river to the centre.
