A good choice 👌
Pros:

The room was nice and spacious, with a queensize bed. Plenty of hanging space in the wardrobe and draw space ample to suit our needs.
Large shower in bathroom for a refreshing start to the day.
It was also nice having our tea/coffee biscuits and chocolate drink replenished everyday 😋
