original featuresgood foodsmall roomcramped bathroom

the building contains many original features. the staff was attentive and the food was good. i liked the dinner served in the restaurant. it was well presented and flavorful.

my room was quite small, specifically room 3. space around the bed was minimal. the en-suite bathroom felt cramped and difficult to navigate.
