Pleasant spacious room. Adequate clean bathroom (could do with hand towel rail) A convenient route to the dining areas would have been good. As it is, at least some signage to each restaurant would help.

Par for the course. Great accommodation- however when the drunks come out of the pub late, it can get noisy.
