uncomfortable bedlow pressure
I did find some issues. The bed was really uncomfortable. It reminded me of I could feel every spring. the shower had very little pressure. It was hard to wash my hair properly. I think these things need attending to.

mixed feelings about this Place

low shower pressurebreakfast disorganisation
The room was clean. Though, I noticed some issues. The shower pressure was WEAK. the breakfast service felt a bit disorganized with staff appearing overwhelmed. I think better planning for breakfast would improve the stay. There was a noticeable lack of attention to detail.
