Room was clean and tidy. Not sure why there was a mirror where I thought the tellie should have been. They mentioned a cleaning fee might be applied if the room was un-tidy or dishes not washed. Bit hard to wash dishes when there is no washing up liquid. Over all a pleasant stay.

Reasonable

A very dated room though bed was clean and comfortable. Room had a strange smell about it, like it had been painted recently , which I found unpleasant. Bathroom was very small with hardly any space to move around. Served our purpose well.
