underwhelming stay. somewhat disappointing.
visible dirt slow service
The room felt a bit neglected. I noticed some cobwebs near the bed. the bathroom also needed a better scrub around the edges of the bath. Dirt was visible. the evening meal was tasty, but overpriced and the service felt quite slow. i expected more attention to detail, especially for the price i paid.
