We Aren't Staying in Bristol?!

We arrive in Bristol after a very, very long day in Bath. We were cold and tired. We just wanted to drop our stuff off, maybe take a shower and then go see a movie. So, I called Manor Lodge where we were set to stay and asked if we could check in early. We got directions, but he kept saying "one stop up." I had no clue what that meant. So we go looking around Bristol Temple Meads for a bridge across the tracks. Luckily, the very nice policemen noticed we were a bit confused. Come to find out we were not supposed to be in Bristol proper, but in a suburb called Keynsham. We had to wait on another train to take us there. However, once we got there it was by far the nicest place we stayed (and the cheapest). The room and bathroom was huge. Keynsham was really small town and closed up really early. I liked it there a lot though, it was quaint. That is a shot from where we stayed down the road. We didn't stay too far from the railroad tracks and the center of town was maybe a 10 min walk with the snow.
