could you explain this sentence?
It's not twee in any way and has been restored in such a genuine fashion.
I couldn't get the meaning of the word(twee).

Like the other person said, it is rarely used, but in this example I would interpret this as meaning it was restored to as close to its original state as possible, without adding tacky gimmicks or quaint little features.
