Nice room with easy fold out double couch bed so could fit our kids in, we stayed for a week and staff came every day while we were out to empty rubbish and service if wished. Had smart tvs in lounge and the room, also had sky TV with sport and movies which was a great extra. We had a great time exploring and were close for our kids sport we were there for. Would definitely stay again.
