Fantastic
I was really surprised by this accommodation. It looked brand new. It did say recently refurbished, but it was exactly that. I arrived very late at 11pm but they had left me a continental breakfast as I had to leave at 7:30am the next day. I thought this was really helpful. The location was really quiet and I reckon lovely during the summer being so close to the river and the boats. I would have no hesitation staying here again.
