“This B&B strikes me as a particularly warm and inviting place to stay, far more personal than a standard hotel. Its location, midway between the airport and city center, is a definite plus, and the hosts seem genuinely dedicated to ensuring a smooth visit with practical advice. I especially appreciate the focus on a varied breakfast, including the option of a take-away, and the awards it won, a sign of true dedication.”

Breakfast offered tasty homemade raspberry jam that wasn't too sweet. The porridge is also highly recommended by returning guests.
