Great Location, but would not stay in this hotel again
Pros:

The location is excellent.

Cons:

The bathroom sink does not have any space to stand your toiletries and the taps are separate instead of more convenient mixer taps.
As the bathroom is so small, the shower door should have a sliding door instead of a door that opens outwards. The shower taps were separate and fiddly, instead of having more convenient mixer taps.
The Spa was not free for guests which it should be!
