Disappointing
Pros:

We were rang at 5 minutes past 3pm asking when we were going to check in as the closed at 5pm although it states in 9pm on your booking. Com website
Then the following morning the shower stopped half way through my shower and the switch switch fell if also head fell of hand held shower , toilet brush not fixed on wall so had to physically hold the toilet brush holder with hand not ideal.
We were asked on checking out how things were and when explaining issues with bathroom, no apology just questioning our opinion , shame as room was beautiful and bed very comfy but attitude not the best

Cons:

Attitude towards negative comments when asked for our opinion
