"Really lovely efficient staff, room was clean and surprisingly large with a small table, lamps and plenty of power outlets which was perfect since I had my sewing machine with me and could set up a sewing space really easily, especially since there was a full size ironing board provided (I had my own iron and ironing board cover with me so I didn't try the one provided but it looked like a perfectly good user friendly domestic model.)"
