Misleading, disappointing, uncomfortable.
Pros:

N/A

Cons:

There was no information regarding the fact that this property is in the middle of/ involved with the Methodist Church. The hotel is in the middle of a commune, and is a part of a church retreat space that was not explicitly stated anywhere on the booking site. Bed was the most uncomfortable thing I have ever been in, felt like it was a bunch of cardboards stacked ontop of one another and stuffed into a fitted sheet.
