The worst thing guests say

Two overnight guests in 2023 reported cats roaming the hotel, with a cat smell in some areas, and advised against it for allergy sufferers. Many low ratings are from people who only ate at the restaurant, such as slow service and wrong dishes. In November 2023 a guest called the hotel dated.
