"Very nice, comfortable & automated access coding allowed us to come straight in on arrival. Thankyou"

8.0

Very nice room, comfortable and though a small amount of road noise, we were far enough back it was of no concern to us. Very good communication from Ju, including accomodating an additional night without needing to change rooms. Easy access, no need for key which made it super simple to get into the room.
