i arrived a bit late, but the staff were still really kind. they showed me the breakfast room and my double room quickly. i liked that i could customise my breakfast order each day. the showers were hot (just what i needed after a long day).
The unkept garden gave a slighty bad first impression. It needs some tlc.
