Hot rooms, average stay
Efficient check in, room was clean and tidy. Sofa bed was very uncomfortable to sleep on, double bed was ok although the room was very hot (mid Sept). Air con “on” but made no difference. Breakfast was chaotic and too busy, had to queue for a table. Decent breakfast although no tea bags or sugar left. Again very hot in there.
