Very basic room which felt mostly clean. Bathroom facilities very tired/aged. The room was clean and basic (a microwave and plates/cups/cutlery, kettle and sink). We tried to pull out the sofa bed to see if it was made up and it was covered in crumbs and food so we didn't bother. We only had beds made for 4 guests despite paying for 5 and the room was freezing when we arrived after 8pm.
