Very covid considerate, you get your own bag of toilet paper and tea, which wasnt in my room so i had to go look for it at reception. Breakfast was served at the cafe across the road, and only opened at 8, but i was told it would open at 7 30 at check in, so disappointed i had to go without due to timing.
