A Decent Stay

helpful staffpolite stafffriendly staffoverpriced foodunderstaffed placebland meal
I had booked a suite. The entire staff were helpful and polite, especially Demish. The staff were friendly and readily accommodated any requests.
The food was overpriced and not tasty. Two simple meals cost me £50. I think the place was understaffed. I will not eat there again.
