I had a wonderful experience at the hotel, where everything was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, which made my stay even more enjoyable. I particularly loved the breakfast; not only was it delicious, but they also accommodated my gluten intolerance by offering gluten-free toast. The location by the river was perfect for evening walks, and it was conveniently situated for exploring local shopping and facilities.
