Dianne

Disliked: Cleanliness
Well situated, easy parking and a large 2 bed apartment which looked as if it had been very comfortable when new. However it was a bit tired looking and unfortunately hadn’t been cleaned very well - we had to clean horrible sticky marks from the bedside cabinets and there was a dirty tissue on the floor. Also (not the hotels fault) a noisy party was taking place in the room next to us until very late at night.
