Cons

The pub downstairs can be noisy until late at night, particularly on weekends.

Some rooms feature shared bathrooms rather than private facilities.

“The establishment strikes me as a truly welcoming spot, with a pub atmosphere downstairs that's clearly the heart of the place, buzzing with lively karaoke nights and friendly locals. Upstairs, the rooms provide a clean and comfortable retreat, and I found the staff exceptionally pleasant and helpful throughout my exploration. It's the kind of genuine, down-to-earth hospitality that makes a stay feel grounded and real.”
