Big rooom. Clean and cute. The bar looked adorable. Super nice staff (lady from nyc) would totally come again. It was so nice to stay in a jcie hotel after some sketch air bnbs. Just book this hotel if you are on the fence. Not too far of a drive from the cliffs, stopped at some castles on the way and stooped by a cute little town for sunset and dinner after the cliffs
