helpful staffearly check-indated roomsfaulty plug
The staff was SUPER nice. I appreciated them allowing an earlier check-in in the morning. It was crucial to have a rest after a long coach travel.
The rooms seemed dated. The plug points were literally falling out of the socket. Dim lighting was in the bathroom. A kettle to boil water required placement on the floor, as all the plug points were floor level.
