falling apart ensuite basic travel lodge
The room was nice and breakfast was very good. I had afternoon sandwiches at the Brassiere then ate at the 1851 in the evening.
My wife and I stayed at the hotel for a weekend and the experience fell flat. The location looked idyllic upon arrival. Our room felt more like a basic travel lodge. The ensuite was falling apart and the shower door would not shut properly.
