minor issues marred the stay
dated bathinconvenient order
The bathroom really let the room down. it included a very dated grey bath. a bath mat covered a white patch in the base. Obviously, there was a crack. also, i wish breakfast didn't need to be ordered the day before, it felt inconvenient

the breakfast tasted good and was a solid start to the day.
the bathroom was disappointing. the bath had a mat covering a white patch, probably a crack. the taps were hard to use and felt old. i also noticed dust on the window ledges, which isn't great for someone with asthma, like me.
