clean room coffee machine tea sachet high price inlcuded breakfast unlocked door
The room was VERY clean. A nice welcome was received upon arrival. The coffee machine had a nice supply of coffee. Sachets of coffee and tea were also available. The shower room was nice, stocked with toiletries, a shower cap, AND a sewing kit!!!
The price i paid for the room SHOULD have included breakfast. The cleaner did not lock the door every time she cleaned the room. ANYONE could have walked in when i was out. It was a bit concerning.

Solid Stay Near the Station

early check-in water bottles coffee machine
Mia was there to welcome us, and she got our room ready early. This worked out really well. I was able to park the car and take it easy right away. The room had water bottles and a coffee machine. I did appreciate that the trains did not run overnight.
Previously they had parking at St Johns, but that has stopped. Overnight parking is not allowed now, I believe. Parking far away was difficult.
Rooms

The room was spacious and very clean with nice little touches included. I especially liked that the room also featured photos of the market place and John Metcalf himself. The room has views that are very traditional.
