Acceptable but With Issues

non-functional wifi no internet connection

Staff were friendly and offered a warm welcome.

The WiFi did not work during my entire stay, a real problem. Each time I tried to connect a device, the system reported no internet connection (this made working remotely difficult). I had to rely on my phone data as a hotspot.
