Room 10 with the spa bath - Great ,close to town

Pros: The large clean room,location,price,lots of parking.Quiet...I had stayd in smaller down stairs room,but upstairs room 10 is the best,quiet and private
Cons: The only problem was the shower didn't drain water out,so water would pool around feet.I mentioned to staff :)

Thank you very much. We have booked the room to have the whole shower unit replaced in the next few days. That should solve the drainage problem. Hope to see you next time!!!
