kind personnelclean roomrundown locationkitchen refurbishment
the reception personnel were very kind and explained everything i needed to know (a warm welcome is always nice). the room was clean, and it. i liked that the staff ordered in a takeaway because there were limited eating options nearby. this.
the location around the building looks a bit rundown. i also noticed that the kitchen was closed due to refurbishment, and i had to eat elsewhere the first night.
