Location was excellent as were the staff, but we were allocated the tiniest room on the floor. Why do hotels offer these rooms without making it clear at booking that the size is considerably smaller than others. It just invites a mediocre review.

Great, central location and wonderful breakfast views, but the rooms are extremely cramped and basic. You have to do acrobatics and weird contortions to gain access to the bed. We must have been given the worst of possible rooms, as it certainly fell well short of the promotional photos.
