Fantastic little space to stay in as a base while exploring the local area The pods have hot water and heating along with basic cooking facilities A good but compact shower and bathroom Nice comfy bed and a nice sofa to relax upon (a little low for me but it's fine) and a marvelous view outside the main doors My only recommendation is to pack light
