Hi Jacqui and Phil,Thank you for the review. We would like to point out that you booked our compact studio online, so recommend that you thoroughly check room photos prior to your next stay so that you won't be disappointed next time. We do hope you will stay with us again in the future, as you are a lovely couple and hope you have a wonderful day. Kind regards
