I was offered a newly refurbished “Club Room” for which I paid an additional £10. The room was fabulous. High end bathroom fittings, lights all over the room which were turned on/off by a switch by the bed. The staff were excellent, with directions and assistance with printing documents. Good value for money and hugely recommended.
