We booked this room based on the info and photos on website. Chosen specifically for microwave and jug so that simple food prep could be done to make our trip more convenient. There was nothing in the room. Also shower was over bath which does not work for 84 year old. Disappointed that it was misleading.

We found the lights strange. Only one option ALL lights on or none. The room was clean and well presented but for the price it was rather dated. No air con. These are not complaints just points of interest.
