• "They weren’t clean and there wasn’t any toilet roll, which should be a basic necessity for a toilet."

• "Only didn’t give 5 stars because parking is a bit of a nightmare, not much toilet facilities onsite."
• "The available bathrooms are a little sparse, but reasonable given the pandemic."
• "My only problem with this place is that there aren’t many toilets on site so there was a long queue for them."
• "Tables messy and unclean."
