The maisonette spanned two floors. it included a sitting room, toilet, and rainforest shower downstairs, and a large bedroom upstairs. we were particularly impressed by the staff. They were friendly and professional throughout our stay.

uneven experience

missing desktop pale carpet
the parking was adequate.
the room lacked a proper desk or dressing table , and there was no surface space in the bathroom to place toiletries. i also noted the absence of a chair, only an upholstered stool. corridors were carpeted with a pale tan carpet that showed marks easily.
