my room included a desk and a comfortable chair , good for catching up on correspondence. the bathroom had heated towel rails , a feature i always appreciate. i found the blackout curtains effective , ensuring a good night's sleep.
the room service menu felt limited , without many choices i liked. i noticed some wear and tear on the furniture in the room , the desk had a noticeable scratch. the noise from the street was occasionally audible , despite the double glazing.
