helpful staff comfortable bed large desk chipped enamel broken light missing cover

The staff were helpful. The rooms have desks that are big enough to work on. I also appreciated the big and comfortable beds. There is a pool. It is a nice facility.

The enamel on the tub was chipped all over. Some light fixtures were broken. Some light covers were missing. This was in the bar and tea area.
