mediocre stay with service inconsistencies

below average buffet small gym

the buffet food was below average. i had expected value for money for the spread size and food taste. the lounge was worse, it had small range and the food taste was equally bad. the gym had a small range of equipment, this was satisfactory but could be over utilized quickly especially on weekends.
