Great room. Shower & mattress excellent. Very clean & comfortable. The code to get key for late in check was sent to me promptly & all was great. My only issue was with the pillows. 3 very high & 1 very low. A bit of a downer when everything else was so perfect. There seems to be no 'mid way' pillows at hotels anymore! Other then that the room was excellent.

Good sized room for two and because the tv was installed on the internal wall between the ensuite and bedroom, there was no issue with noise from neighbours’ tvs. The brick construction also helped to reduce ambient noise.
