“In Frome, this venue places you steps from the historic center. The rooms are generously sized, and it's a short walk to the Cheese & Grain. I noted the entertainment focus, a karaoke and live music venue, which might suit some more than others.”

Central Location and Cute Staff

cute staffgreat locationcentre of townloud noise
The staff members were very cute upon my arrival. This hotel's location is great. It's right in the centre of town. I found it convenient for accessing everything I needed (shops, restaurants, sights etc.).
I noticed the toilet made quite a loud noise after flushing. I could also hear the people in the next room very clearly, a bit disruptive. It would be beneficial to improve soundproofing in the rooms.
