The experience was positive generally. The twin beds were rather narrow comparatively. My husband and i opted for the twin room as i had a medical problem. The entertainment was dreadful unfortunately with the gentleman straining to reach notes he proved unable to reach in tune. Not so bad as he was only there on one of the evenings of our stay. With no other bar or lounge alternative , we watched tv in our room. Overall, the stay was acceptable. Have had better for less money in other towns and cities.
