Staff were friendly and very wuick with check in. When I booked I requested 2 sinlge beds, our room had only 1 bed, we didn't ask for this to be corrected as we were heading out straight away, but it would have been good to have what was requested. Apart from that, we had a fantastic stay, would definitely stay again. Location was great, views are amazing and the room was very clean.
