adequate but underwhelming

water damaged door uncomfortable bed

The room was not quite what i expected. the advertised star rating felt a bit generous, to be honest. i noticed water damage on the bathroom door and a broken seat in the bedroom. the beds really need replacing. I could feel all the springs and it was not comfortable at all.

fresh breakfast tidy room

the breakfast was cooked to order. it arrived hot and was tasty. the room matched its description and felt suitable for less able people.

i found that the bedroom lacked a dressing table. more table space would be useful because of the wardrobe size. a table will be good in the room.
