We had an accessible room. We didn't need an accessible room but I can see that for those that do it is quite well set up. But the bathroom didn't have a door, just a curtain, not ideal for the able bodied. Also the water from the shower spread all across the bathroom floor, again not ideal, would be okay if a mop had been provided. Property in general looks very tired but the location is fantastic and renovations are obviously underway. So it's on the way up but has a little way to go.
