The room included quality biscuits with the tea and coffee. The shower had great body products. The breakfast offered so much choice and I found the full English delicious. Raul's service was great.
The water pressure was awful. I have experienced better pressure elsewhere. Some simple cleaning was missed. There was a lot of dust. I noticed some mould on the ceiling in the first room.
