adequate stay

easy wifiperfect sizenoisy roadworn bedding
sarah and james were very cute. i spent an evening watching football with them and the locals. the wifi worked well, so i could set up my laptop and work from the room with ease. the room was a perfect size.
The room faced a busy main road. it was noisy. the bedding felt worn, and the mattresses weren't firm, so i had a backache the next morning. there was no food available in the evening. Only breakfast.
