The ataff were all very helpful and pleasant. It would be good if there was a power point near the bed so your phone can charge while you are sleeping but is still accessible. The general design of the room was good. It was nice to see shelves in the bathroom and shower.

Never stay there again.

Our room was NEVER serviced, and on both days, very noisy children were shouting and running up and down the corridor. I heard that they were from people staying in four adjacent rooms. Each room's door was left ajar so the kids could go in and out. This was our fifth visit to the property, and we will never use it again.
