Superb stay!

polite staffclean roomshower gel
The food was excellent (especially the breakfast!). The staff were so polite, it's really commendable. I also appreciated the modern, VERY clean room provided . There was plenty of tea and coffee available in the room.
The shower was warm, and shower gel wasn't provided. I had to use hand wash. This was the only minor inconvenience .

the food tasted alright, i guess. the room was quiet, that's something.
i found the shower pressure less than stellar. it barely trickled out, i almost had to stand on my head to rinse the shampoo. i think they need a plumber, and maybe a new shower head.
