underwhelming stay

beautiful architecturesubpar cleanlinessdog presence
the building itself was quite beautiful, showcasing some nice architecture.
I found the pub cleanliness to be subpar. It wasn't as tidy as i hoped. also, i didn't realize dogs were allowed inside. This aspect detracted from my comfort, especially given my allergies and preference for pet-free dining areas. the constant presence of dogs made the atmosphere less relaxing.
