Good hotel

This hotel is about 20 minutes walk from the historic centre. We arrived late and I was concerned about parking but even though they only had 4 spaces - we managed to get one. The reception staff gave us lots of info and a map of where up go etc. No Hotel bar and no garden or nice view from room but good breakfast and lovely staff.
