i loved how clean the room was! it was very spacious. the breakfast was also really good. the staff were super friendly and helpful, i cannot wait to go back!
The mattress was a bit too soft for my liking. it made it a little difficult to get a good night's sleep. I woke up with a backache, it really needs a replacement!
