It was just ok. Very basic room, small but very bare amenities. Bathroom vent very noisy. Towel warmer had wires hanging out and no decor on walls, but seemed clean. The view was good but the price we paid was too much for the quality of room.

:Property was quite good, clean and ideal location. It is unstaffed and staff can be reached by phone. The outer door was not locked at any time during my stay and thus anyone could get inside, so it is important to keep your room locked. My only other issue is that I would have liked to have a choice of a front or back room.
