Liked: Location, dog friendly, customer service. Looks like this could be the start of something great! Pricey for what you get as there is only 2 showers, 2 toilets and no hot water to clean your hands and washing facilities
Disliked: Needed more showers and toilets and hot water to wash your utensils and hands with
