Simple, functional stay

attentive servicegenerous portionsgood valuevague information
The restaurant had a basic setup, still the large menu and attentive service were welcome. My food arrived well-prepared, with generous portions, a genuine pub experience. It felt more like a pub than a restaurant, but that's fine. The value was definitely there.
The available information felt vague. I was unsure what to expect. The accommodation looked like a bunkhouse from the outside. A long corridor led to the rooms. I thought there could have been a few more details upfront.
