I had an amazing stay at The Travel Bug! It’s warm, friendly, and really feels like home. Nick has created such a nice atmosphere to hangout and get to know other guests aswell as explore the surrounding area. He also provides a really nice breakfast with good coffee, fruit, toast, and different spreads including home made hummus!
