A Mixed Experience

fantastic roomquiet roomsdisorganized receptionlacking facilities

The room size was fantastic. I also noticed the bathroom size was great too. I found the location convenient because its proximity to the main road. The rooms stayed very quiet despite that.

The reception area seemed disorganized upon arrival. It didn't appear like anyone cared that guests arrived, I thought. I also noticed the tea making facilities were sadly lacking. Two coffees and two teas are insufficient with two tiny packets of milk.
