The room was clean but could do with some updates, the windows are not double glazed and let cold and noise through, however the thick curtains stopped to many drafts. The room was warm and we overlooked the canal. we used the swimming pool in the spa and that was nice.

Nice large room (which we paid extra for, of course). However, there was no in-room safe and no air conditioning. Stuffy even in a mild December - dread to think what it is like in high summer.
