Disliked: Room comfort
Everything was great about the stay, except, the bed was super uncomfortable. I’ve stayed here before and not had these issues, but for whatever the reason the bed in our room this time was super hard and had a pronounced valley in the middle. Had a rubbish night’s sleep, so not happy with the overall stay. We moved on somewhere else for the next night.
