Pavilion on Northbourne
Staff was very helpful. Room was clean. Disappointed that kitchen corner did not have a tap and small sink which made the use of a kettle difficult and the use of plates not possible as we had nowhere to wash them. The bathroom had only one face towel. Should have been two off.
