Lovely place , friendly staff needs to shine
Pros:

It’s was in amazing location and staff very helpful

Cons:

Like anything in the hospitality trade these days. Prices are being driven down whilst cost continue to rise. I don’t blame hotel at and staff were lovely but rooms look kinda dated in decor and could do with a spruce up. However how are they ever going to do that with such low margins these days.
