Adequate Stay at a Remote Location

beautiful buildinggood locationcute breakfastefficient staffdark decorlow pressureslow wifi
The hotel boasts a really beautiful building in a good location. The bar and breakfast room were both cute and clean. The staff also seemed well-trained and efficient .
My room's decor was quite dark (and didn't feel very inviting). The water pressure was very low in the bathroom. It rendered most of the shower features unusable. The WiFi was also noticeably slow.
