mixed feelings about this place
basic accommodation limited facilities
The breakfast was quite good. I will give them that.
The room was pretty basic. It certainly wasn't good value. it felt cold. The facilities were quite limited compared to what i would expect at this price point. the building has charm, but the experience left much to be desired.
