Nice place and host but cold
Host is great, they are friendly and accommodating.
The Google map link in email directs to parking lot, which is in the back of the building.
Room is super COLD, even when turned the heat to max. And the heat was turned off automatically not sure when, but the room was freezing cold in the morning.

Lovely accommodation
Only issue I had was with the parking around the back, they charged for it (£10) and it was a very tight space right outside a school, so leaving in the morning was very difficult. Otherwise, the accommodation was lovely.

Staff were very helpful and I appreciated that they honoured not charging for parking as shown on my booking. The breakfast was nice but I found a mouldy strawberry in the fruit. We had a missing bath towel and they immediately bought one. The Wi-Fi was not that good so all in all a pleasant stay but not overwhelming.

BE WARNED!
I accidentally left my phone charger behind in my room, after calling the hotel daily for assistance I kept getting fobbed off that they will investigate.
I was told nobody else has been in the room since so it must have been stolen by who ever serviced the room.
I do not recommend this hotel, if you do decide to stay watch your belongings as it is clearly operated by bandits.
