1. The only downside to the rooms was the showers - the water pressure is pretty weak and the shower heads assume all guests are under 5' 8'.

10. The only downside i would have was that we had booked a cool corner room which was advertised with panoramic views with 2 windows and we only had one and when we asked we were told that some rooms do and some dont? Also there is a lovely tempting munchie box but you would have to pay extra for any of the goodies and at a cost.
