the staff welcomed us warmly. a girl showed us to our beautiful, clean room. she was friendly and showed interest in our visit. another girl served us drinks in the evening and remembered our surprise plan. jack served us at breakfast and knew a lot about local things. the room was airy, clean, and spacious. breakfasts included amazing mushrooms. i plan to grow king oyster mushrooms now. the manager jack made us welcome despite reception ongoing.

the extension lead was hanging down, which looked tatty. this detail stood out slightly.
