mixed feelings about this stay
friendly staffpeeling paintsmall coffee machine
The staff seemed friendly enough upon arrival. That was acceptable.
The room felt rather neglected. i noticed peeling paint above the shower. It definitely needs some attention. the coffee machine at breakfast looked like something from a small house, hardly what i expected.
