michael

on arriving at our room the tile floor under the window was very wet. Possibly due to the mopping of the floor and not been dried out properly. It was not caused by rain as shutters were on the windows, and too much water to be due to humidity as suggested. We had to use towels to mop it up as it was very dangerous and slippery for both pf us in our mid eighties

Easy check-in with lovely lady on reception - in fact all the staff were welcoming and very helpful. Our upstairs room had recently been renovated: it was spacious with tiled floors, modern bathroom and kitchenette. Appreciated the tiled floors rather than carpets, and also being able to leave our balcony doors open as the room had security screens. Undercover car parking was a bonus too. Will more than likely stay there again.
