helpful staff great location missing tv faulty plug
The staff were very helpful, and i loved how friendly they were. The location was also great. the evening meal menu had so many delicious choices, i couldn't decide what to order.
Our room didn't have a tv. This is something i usually expect. the sink plug wasn't working, it was a minor thing.
