a good coastal stay
sized fridge welcome tray high standard
the room was immaculate! it featured a good-sized fridge stocked with water. a welcome tray included teas, coffees, and biscuits, a thoughtful touch. the furnishing and decor showcased a high standard throughout the room.
The room felt a little dark due to the vintage decor. Brighter lighting would enhance the space.
