I enjoyed the spaciousness of room 11. It provided all necessities I needed. The bed felt very comfortable, and the bathroom was lovely.
I found the sofa in the room looked untidy. The table in the bedroom had some hairs left. I also noticed the pedestal drawer was left open. This bothered me, and the cold water tap on the right-hand sink was not working.
