delicious breakfast friendly staff dusty room damp smell
The breakfast was really good (i especially liked the variety). The staff was friendly and cute.
The bedroom wasn't very clean. I could see dust on the side of the bed. The hotel smells of damp when you go upstairs. This was not very appealing.
