When I wasn’t happy with the accommodation and booked elsewhere, staff tried their level best to accommodate me better, but unfortunately it was too late as I had already secured elsewhere via bookings.com

Matter was discussed with the owner, therefore not needed to elaborate on this platform.

Same menu throughout the week i stayed. There should be some kind of enhancement and improvisation or even variation.

It was cold, but I was warm because they have electric blanket and heater in the rooms. Fire place at the breakfast area.
