Acceptable Stay with a Few Issues

helpful staff mobility issues lovely room rusty wheel outdated room restroom radiator

I found the staff very helpful. They addressed my mobility issues willingly. My room was lovely and the team did their best to cater for my needs..

The restroom radiator would not turn off. I had to call reception. A tool was needed to turn the rusty wheel. The room felt outdated and in need of some maintenance.
