Very nice room, with seperate entry/kitchette. Clean annd tidy. Only gripe is the old-fashioned “window rattler” ac - it is noisy and thus was hard to sleep with. Suggest split ac would be more in order. And the paid-for brekkie didn’t eventuate due “renovations” forcing a partial refund and a lift into town, which was fine. Manager Sean was very obliging and provided us with transfers to our aircraft at the airport. Much appreciated.
