The staff was friendly and accommodating. I meet new people in the pub because I was traveling solo. The bathroom felt spacious to me and featured a deep bath. The bed also felt very soft.
The room felt dusty to me and it was not that clean. We stayed for two nights however the room was not attended and our towels didn't change.
