My family room included an interconnecting door. My daughter, who is fourteen, had her own space. the staff helped us get food quickly, excellent. It was just what we needed after a long day. breakfast was hearty as well.

The standard of furniture in my room was poor. So was the decor. my room overlooked the car park, which wasn't ideal. I also noticed some missing items, like a bin and a toilet brush.
