poor roadsunwelcoming request
The request to remove shoes immediately upon entry felt unwelcoming. I also felt uneasy being instructed that luggage could not be rolled on the carpet. access roads to the hotel were quite poor! this made arrival more stressful than it needed to be. the road conditions require attention.

i had to ask for an extra slice of toast it felt a bit awkward i didn't like specifying breakfast beforehand either you have to wait for tea and ask for everything the general approach seems to supply the minimum unless asked
