Room was not clean as we found pubes all over the shower, bath and event the bed. We asked for a room for two adults and two kids. I wouldn’t be happy to stay in there for one adult let alone the rest of the family as it was far too small and cramped. Staff did not make us feel welcome from the start and when asked if we could possibly use a microwave to sterilise our babies bottles, they ignored me on multiple occasions
