negative:

Not much place to unpack.

A few of the rooms are not equipped with wardrobes or dressers for guests to unpack their belongings into. Luckily, guests are able to request the rooms that do have these, if they are planning to stay longer than a weekend.

negative:

Limited selection of food.

Guests wishing to expand their meal choices, will find the menu lacking in variants. The food is still good, and enjoyable, but for more variety guests are welcomed to try any of the nearby pubs and diners.
