Nice big room, clean & well equipped in a very good location.
The rooms have no air conditioning and windows that don't open much. As it was hot summer weather, this made for a sweaty uncomfortable night's sleep. Fans had been requested after checking in and realising the issue, but we were told flat out that no fans were available and the place was fully booked so we couldn't be moved to a cooler room. It was obvious that the place wasn't fully booked but we didn't feel at ease to call out this fib. Anyway, we went back to complain when we couldn't sleep in the night and a more understanding person did try to locate fans in housekeeping storage but couldn't gain access. Housekeeping eventually delivered a fan to the room the next morning. This made the heat in the room more bearable but the lack of fresh air meant the fan was mostly recycling warm air within the room., A real shame, as this let down what would have otherwise been a great experience.
