adequate stay with some shortcomings

locked windows poor food
the staff were friendly enough.
The room was quite hot and i would have appreciated a key for the locked windows. I needed some air. the food was not great. The cooking quality seemed very poor. frozen chips were used and the lasagna was too dry.

lovely stay with really good service

delicious food friendly waitress super clean toilets ample parking
The food was so great. I especially enjoyed the sweet and sour pork. the waitress provided prompt service and had a friendly attitude. the super clean toilets stood out with their cleanliness. there was plenty of parking available near the rear courtyard.
the shower cubicle was somewhat small, which could be a slight inconvenience for some guests.
