Room 7's bed mattress was slightly broken down on right side. Room, although very clean and in good condition, was lacking in comfort. The two chairs were hard and uncomfortable.
Breakfast was more than adequate in amount and presentation

Room heater was a little noisy, but it worked and could be turned off after a while.
Excellent location, a pity many of the parks were still repairing storm damage. Cosy room with a warm quilt on the bed. Good TV.
