Very comfortable and well appointed. Lots of electric sockets by the bed, power shower, big bed with fresh linen, fluffy towels etc. Off street parking. Welcome pack included milk, local cheese, crackers, olives and a choice of jams and spreads. Quality TV. Only negatives are that shops are not walking distance away. And there is a powerful smell of air freshener.
