Unfortunately it was like having torture! the bathroom shower dripped all night- the switch was also broken! it was a shame as we booked this on the basis of a previous and much nicer visit. Sadly this time it was not up to that standard. Location wise it was ideal- shops, restaurants, museums, and transport all nearby.
