We had the best night's sleep in a long time here. the room doesn't get much sunlight and there's a sliding door with a near black out curtain feature that helped us sleep so well. Really comfortable space. Great kitchen facilities. Only downside was the lack of parking but this is to be expected in a city location. The pool also comes across as larger in the photos but it's quite small in real life and gets crowded very quickly.
