They upgraded me to a bigger cabin it was great. Only concern I would have is it was a wheelchair cabin so this didn’t bother me but if someone was in a wheelchair it would be hard to reach where the spare toilet paper is. For our stay personally it didn’t bother us I’m thinking of the people in a wheelchair. Was great all round service. But the couch could do with an upholstery clean.
