Pros:

Everything was amazing. Good space. Had a table and chairs inside for food. Comfortable beds.

Cons:

Just a suggestion. The shower head is quite small and old and does not move or swivel or anything. Water falls right down by the drain and it is challenging to shower

OK but could be more comfortable.
Pros:

Everything was OK, ten pin bowling group at one location was good, restaurant was fine but limited choice.

Cons:

Heater making loud noises, shower erratic and sometimes no hot water, tv freeview only. No chair in the outside space, no kitchen equipment, plates, cutlery etc in the room. Tap head fell off in the small sink area. General maintenance and upgrade needed to make this more comfortable.
