mixed feelings about this accommodation.
friendly staffdated roompaper cups
The staff was friendly. This made arrival a bit easier.
The room felt quite basic and dated. I stayed in a double. the value for money seemed off, considering the kettle came with paper cups. I thought it was a wasteful measure.
