Dining quality gets mixed reviews

Dining is often praised for taste, but cleanliness issues show up too.

Others report that the overall food quality could use improvement, framing it as more institutional than exceptional. One reviewer also flags a specific cleanliness problem in the dining area, which helps explain the split.
