Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Location was great. Breakfast was great, nice choice of fruit & cooked items. Food was cooked well & came to the table piping hot. Balcony & view was great. Friendly host.
Negative: We wasn’t told at time of booking that there would not be an evening meal option. Pillows were not very comfortable too flat. Needs updating decoration. Not enough plug sockets. Overall clean but dust buildup behind headboard.
Summary: Stay was ok, but bit disappointed with the overall look of the inside of the hotel.
