I didn't like the room or layout. Toilet/shower separated from beds by a curtain. Road outside was level with bottom of window. Lights operated as they liked. Sorry not for me. I walk with a stick and could not find a disabled person's entrance.

Room was good , however I was in the middle of the corridor at the corner to the next corridor so it was quite noisy. No coffee or water in your room, this was available at reception but I was on the 5th floor so a bit of a trek. The coffee and the cooked breakfast was pretty poor and wouldn’t book it next time.
