Liked: Staff & service
The mattress was old and lumpy, and the gutters need repairing to prevent the sound of rain coming down sounding like someone urinating outside window. The bathroom although big, was a bit grubby and it was impossible to get the temperature right in the shower. On the plus side, the food was excellent!
