Decent Accommodation

hot mealbreakfast selectionstaffing issueinadequate fan
The room was quite spacious , and it included tea and coffee making facilities. The breakfast selection offered a good range of choices , and the hot meals tasted delicious.
I found clear staffing issues . The pub was not very busy , yet I heard they were short of a chef. My room felt very warm , and I received only one fan , which was not adequate.
