The lounge bar area was excellent. It was a good space to relax.
The bedroom door was poorly fitted, and I noticed a significant gap at the bottom. Light flooded in, disturbing my sleep. I had to use cushions to block the light.

misleading bed early noises
the room i booked was supposed to have a king-sized bed, but it felt more like a standard double. i found that misleading. also, i was woken up both mornings by loud noises from what sounded like kitchen staff right outside my door.. this started way too early. i expect better soundproofing or at least consideration at that hour. it really messed up my sleep schedule.
