Emily W sorted out an issue with our room door with a professional and reassuring manner. A great employee.
The bathroom design was clever with the door, three mirrors, deep bowl, and night-light.

The accessible room was absolutely fine. Lots of handles in the bathroom, a shower area with no step, and a low bed.
