The bathroom was freezing. the floor was so cold it made my feet hurt. the towel rail did not warm up the towels at all. Yes, i did check it was on. it was frustrating! the hot water took so long to come through to our room, a full five minutes of running the shower on the saturday morning. the sink drain was terrible too.

mixed feelings about this stay

decent sizebad heatingunhygienic jam
the room had a decent size, wich was ok.
i wasnt happy with the heating. the room was freezing, and when i complained, nothing really happened. plus, the breakfast jam situation with a spoon sticking out of the jar seemed pretty unhygienic to me, especially not knowing if someones already lick or leave on the floor.
