adequate stay with minor issues

helpful staff continental breakfast loose holder missing rail
lottie at the bar provided great service! she was friendly and helpful. the continental breakfast in the morning was a nice addition to my stay.
The toilet roll holder was very loose. It did not hold the toilet roll well. i noticed there was no grab rail in the shower to hold onto, something i needed because of balance problems.
