Please improve the handicap bathroom. Nice big shower, however every time you shower there is a flood on the whole bathroom floor. Even when you try to direct the shower head directly over the shower drain. Not enough of an incline at the drain. Put soap and like in room. None.

Clean modern facilities. Good continental breakfast range and dinner menu except it was the same dinner menu/specials every night - ? have some different items on special. Some confusion for my fellow traveller when ordering cup ot tea - teapot brought mixed with milk. Room power points limited for 3 people charging phones/watches/hearing aids. Wireless charging mentioned on lamp but couldnt get to work. Maybe some instruction.
