Satisfied stay

helpful staffexcellent breakfastcomfy beds
I found the staff great. They helped with everything. i asked for rooms near each other and my request was fulfilled. the breakfast was excellent with much variety. the beds were comfortable, and i had lots of space in the wardrobe for my belongings.
The internet connection was very slow . the shower had some mold in the ends, and it leaked after each use. I cleaned the floor after showering. the safe was not attached, so someone could take it away easily.
