the breakfast had good choices, and the service was relaxed. ample car parking was available at the back. staff members were friendly!
Lighting in the room needs improvement. It felt gloomy.
The shower temperature was inconsistent! It kept switching between scalding hot and freezing cold. The shower tray also filled up quickly, almost overflowing. Apparently, other guests had complained about the shower temperature too. I am frustrated that management has not fixed these recurring plumbing issues.
