Seen better days?

Once this was ahead of it's time. Now it has fallen behind. Our room was spacious and the bed comfortable but there were several maintenance issues and missing items crockery and cutlery. We enjoyed dinner and breakfast in the restaurant and it was nice and good value. Overall, it just needs to lift it's game and get some quality and consistency. YMMV
