Apparently I had the biggest room in the hotel. It was totally awesome for the price--absolute luxury. An added bonus for an extended stay is a full kitchen to use, and a nice living room to socialize. There was a problem with my fob key but not only did the manager contact me but he made the kind and generous offer to refund 20.00 £ as a courtesy. The staff are very kind.
