"Good accomodation, compact and modern. Room with window much more comfortable and bigger than previous stay where room without window felt cramped and claustrophobic for myself. Lovely lounge area with good ambience and seating where can enjoy use of 24/⁷ for eating own food relaxing on various seating options. Quiet and lovely hand body hair wash in rooms. No need to bring own."
