Good stay in comfortable room

Nice welcome and upstairs had a good view. Bed was extremely comfortable and we slept well. Sound proofing between rooms seemed non-existent but this didn't interfere with our sleep. Very generous servings for the meal we had in the evening and a great complimentary breakfast :)
