"Loved the view.Would stay again for sure. Not sure you are aware the side cupboards in the bathroom are broken,just looking at them you would think they are ok, but as soon as you open the whole lot collapses. And just one other comment your cleaners need to lift the bottom of shower drain, it was disgusting as it was filled with black long hair and a little blocked. We did clean it for you. In saying this we would definitely be back."
