Disliked: Room comfort
Everything was great about the stay, except, the bed was super uncomfortable. I’ve stayed here before and not had these issues, but for whatever the reason the bed in our room this time was super hard and had a pronounced valley in the middle. Had a rubbish night’s sleep, so not happy with the overall stay. We moved on somewhere else for the next night.

The breakfast is fine for a free extra. There are limited healthy items but fruit, yogurt and some slightly better cereal was available. Generally it is not great quality but its fine and reasonable given it is included.
