Easy and quick check in process, very spacious and cosy room with an amazing spa bath and incredibly comfortable bed! Great to have a mini fridge and the bits and bobs we needed to have our own meals in our room instead of dining out if we wished. Robes and slippers were a nice touch! We loved our stay and will definitely be back.
