Lovely little room had everything and more , nice little touches, shortbread and macaron from chef. Fridge on wall with daily fresh milk. Friendly staff. Great choice for breakfast using local ingredients. Rooms are across the street from the pub, narrow stairs may be tricky for people with reduced mobility. Would definitely stay again, short stroll to the Cathedral and city centre, quiet location

Good breakfast and location; clean and quiet. Recognize that there is no elevator and there are steep steps. The later you come, the more likely you’ll find only attic rooms left.

Very friendly and accommodating. From the scruffy guy who checked me in to the American who served dinner, it was a class act.
