uncomfortable pillowsovercooked bacon
The room felt a bit stuffy because the radiator stayed on all night, and i struggled to adjust it or turn it off so i had to leave the windows open. the pillows provided were not very comfortable though, they felt quite flat. breakfast the first morning was disappointing. The bacon was overcooked, and i had trouble cutting through it. it was really hard to eat it because it was so crispy, almost burnt, which affected the overall enjoyment of the meal.
