mixed feelings about this stay

cramped room obscured view
The breakfast included was acceptable. I didn't go hungry.
The "premium plus room" wasn't what i expected, though. it felt cramped. the promised loch view was mostly obscured by trees. I could barely see the water.

The staff at breakfast was really good. That much is true.
The minibar prices was like highway robbery. I saw bottled water cost almost as much as a dram of whisky, just offensive. the promised turndown service never materialized. Maybe they thought i didn't look important enough.
