10/10 Excellent
"The walk in shower was nice but had no seat. Also had no anti slip texture or bath mat. No cup in the bathroom to rinse your mouth. Kleenex were rough and seemed cheap. TV was difficult and choices were limited. many channels had to be logged into. It was a nice clean comfortable room but there seemed to be too many shortcuts."
