Comfy

The staff were very friendly and polite. The hotel room was nice with 2 options for pillows. The bed was comfortable and there was a kettle to make hot drinks. Downside was the room was freezing with the air conditioning on, I couldn’t find a thermostat to switch it off and I was very cold overnight. The shower hose leaked at the shower connected snd on the side, spraying water everywhere. The shower fittings were loose and need replacing.
