Sunny Start to the Day

sunny room appetising breakfast

The room I had was sunny. It was lovely to wake up there. Breakfast was fresh and cooked exactly as I ordered. The host was polite and cute making me feel valued as a guest.

The room's doors, locks, and keys were very old-fashioned. This. The heavy traffic on the nearby road added to the noise.
