hospitality tray cooled water

I felt so welcomed by brian, he. he showed me to the room, a king room sea view, and explained everything. the room was wonderfully fresh and clean. it had a lovely hospitality tray with tea, coffee, and biscuits! also, complimentary water cooled in the fridge. This was replenished each day. the towels were, too.

The drink machine wasn't quite my cup of tea. I would have preferred a kettle, maybe.

vegan breakfast mini fridge good shower

The breakfast offered many choices, a vegan cooked breakfast included. The room had a mini fridge filled with water and also coffee pods with a coffee maker. I found the shower to be a good size, toiletries were provided too.

The machine for drinks was not something I liked. I would have preferred a kettle.
