In all it suited our requirements
Pros:

Central to our needs.
The shower head was amazing, so amazing that we tracked one down in Bunnings and purchased one for our home 🤗

Cons:

We stay here quiet often and the rooms are great, this stay however we were given a very small room, no mirror in the room (small one in the bathroom) and if you were a large person then sitting on the toilet would be near impossible. Definitely would be a mission if two people want to use the bathroom at the same time.
