Adequate Stay with Some Issues

varied menu ample parking outdated decor damp smell
The room was quite large I had a Beautiful Twin Room. Breakfast service included a varied menu and fresh pastries. The location was convenient with off-road positioning and ample parking space.
The decor felt a bit outdated the design seemed to come from the 1980s. There was a noticeable damp smell I found this a little off-putting.

a decent stay overall

really good welcome clean room outdated bedroom smoke smell
the staff offered really good welcome. the rooms were spotlessly clean. i appreciated the beds, as they were large and comfortable. i also liked that the team made sure each guest felt welcome.
the bedroom was a little outdated. i had a room with a balcony. i noticed a horrible smell of smoke in the room. i think this is because guests who smoke use the balcony.
