Accomodation was fine. Only issue we had was with the meals. Ours was cold and missing parts of it. My parents didn't even receive one of the breakfasts they ordered. Seemed to be one girl doing all the running around with a full house full of travellers waiting on breakfasts to leave. Otherwise friendly staff and clean rooms. Beds comfy.
