We loved our stay at the hotel, celebrating our 24th anniversary.
Pros:

The breakfast on both days was excellent. The room was quiet and dark when the curtains were closed. It was easy to link our phone to the TV so we could watch our normal shows. Great that the mirror in the bathroom never fogged up, even after a hot shower. Nothing worse than trying to shave with a fogged-up mirror. I liked having lots of space to put our suitcases. Many hotels have only enough room for one suitcase, so the added space was helpful and there were lots of drawers to put our items into.

Cons:

I would have preferred a shower cubicle, but it was fine in the bath. My wife enjoyed having a few baths, so not much really to complain about. An extra blanket in the room would have been helpful.
