good breakfastsmall roomunconcerned staff
the breakfast had a good spread.
the room i booked was quite small.. i think they gave me a smaller room than what i paid for initially. the staff didn't seem too concerned until i really pushed the issue. it's irritating to have to argue about something like that at this price point.
