6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff were nice, the room was clean and tidy but the walls are thin (we could hear the people in the next room showering, talking, etc) and the room was quite tired-looking (stained chairs, curtain a bit loose and didn’t quite cover the window, walls and floors looked like they wanted an update), definitely didn’t look as good as it did in the photos. Very convenient to town, so that was a plus.
