riverview room train station indian restaurant long walk umbrella deposit poor food

The riverview from my room was amazing, a real treat. I really liked that the hotel gave me a lift to the train station at check-out. The on-site Indian restaurant also had really delicious meals.

The walk to town was longer than expected at almost 2 km! I had to pay a deposit just to use an umbrella, really weird.
