Disliked: Amenities
The walls are not at all sound proof. We could here our neighbours talking at a normal volume in the next room and we got to listen to their baby cry all night long too (not their fault. That's what babes do sometimes). To top things off...There was no breakfast on Sunday morning as advertised.

The beds were clean, the room was warm when we got there. The floor had stuff on it (I'm assuming tracked in by the cleaning staff) but I was wearing slippers so it was fine.
