breakfast choicehybrid bikeworn sofasqueaking noise
The breakfast had many choices. i particularly like the cool water in the fridge as it was a hot day. they even hire bikes, hybrid and electric bikes are also available. What a great way it is to see the sights.
i stayed in a room on the top floor and it was a bit worn. the sofa had crumbs on it and it looks as if it needs a makeover. the beds sinking in the middle and made annoying squeaking noises.
