clean room friendly staff soap amenity poor wifi restricted parking crow noise

the room was clean. it included everything i needed. the staff were very friendly on arrival. the bathroom had soaps provided.

wifi did not connect. i had to message the contact number to be advised of the log in password. parking is restricted with work vans coming and going. sleeping with the windows open, i woke up to a dawn chorus of crows.
