"I had a nice room and great view and it is a good place in many ways at a price that reflects it's flaws. It's just a few things that let them down - towel rail loose;strange brown coloured dirt mark by the inside bathroom door handle; carpet in main room was loose and not properly fitted with a tear in it. Otherwise it was all a good standard."
