art deco gem with solid service

spacious roomcoffee bagsoverflowing shower tray
the room was spacious and included an iron and ironing board. providing taylor coffee bags was like a real bonus. the toiletries pack came in handy, as i ended up needing several items it contained.
I found the shower tray overflowed because it could not handle the water volume. This should be addressed.
