Good stay. Room as described. The shower was very slippery and the shower head has to be held in your hand when showering, so may not be suitable for all.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Nice, comfortable rooms (friend, me). But she was at the front of our building and had a group roomed around her: noisy (my room was off on its own, at the back: quiet). Also, she was located where the outside door BANGED shut every time someone entered/exited. Maybe they could adjust the setting so that it closes quietly?
