underwhelming stay
excellent staffunpleasant odordirty towels
the staff at this family place seemed excellent and offered a fantastic welcome.
The room i had felt small. It barely accommodated one suitcase, let alone providing space to open a second one, and it was very dark. I noticed an unpleasant odor from the bathroom, and the towels, instead of being white, looked yellow and as if they were not very clean.
