Decent Hotel Stay
friendly staff lovely food dated room slow service
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was also lovely . I really appreciated their quick service and attention to detail. The team.
My room felt a bit dated. The furniture seemed old and not very stylish. I also had to wait almost two hours for my tea because the place was busy with locals. Reserving tables for hotel guests might improve things.
