Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: business
Positive: Perfect location, great breakfast, very comfortable room and the staff were super friendly and I appreciated the fact that it's a social enterprise helping young homeless people. I'd much rather put my money into a business that does good rather than helps a few people get even richer, so if I would definitely book again if in Taunton in the future.
