Acceptable stay with some issues.
soap workshopdirty linenbad housekeeping
I enjoyed the soap workshop. It was a good chance to meet other guests.
The housekeeping wasn't great. I saw dirty used bed linen and a blood stain on the cabinet door. I think the hotel needs to pay more attention to cleaning.
