A very nice room with high quality fittings. Very clean and comfortable. We didn't realise that it was a room for the disabled until we saw the wet room. There was a lamp in the bedroom the lamp at low level that we could not turn off so we had to unscrewed the fitting and turn the bulb so we could have a dark room. No sink plug.
