mixed feelings about this place
good food selectionmouldy shower curtaincramped bathroom
the breakfast was acceptable with a good selection of foods.
i stayed in an annex room (the only window looked out at a yard full of rubbish and high walls) on the ground floor and it felt dark and dingy. the bathroom was cramped with a mouldy shower curtain. it was not ideal.
