Pros:

The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, hotel restaurant was really good, jacuzzi was appreciated even though no bubbles. Room isn’t fancy but everything worked

Cons:

There is only one window in the room (and one in the bathroom), and being on the ground floor, we had the curtain down most of the time.
Room itself is quite small, with a very thin sliding door between bathroom and room
