The staff were very friendly and helpful with directions. Breakfast was good (the pastries were a treat!).
The decor looked like it had not been updated since the 1980s. My room had a faint damp smell, and I noticed the window was left open, maybe to air it out. The bed was not very comfortable, made sleeping difficult.

The decor seemed a little outdated. My balcony room had a horrible smell of smoke, guests obviously used it to smoke.
