5. It was a rocking party, but unfortunately filled with locals of a much younger age group than myself or my wife.

7. unfortunately, the room thermostat was set at 72, and my husband and I both slept fitfully (too warm with the duvet, but without a top sheet it was too cold) until I lowered the thermostat in the middle of the night to 69, which solved the problem.

10. First, when checking in I was told that I had booked two nights, which I hadn`t (and the confirmation email -- which unfortunately hadn`t been printed and brought with -- later showed this to be true).
