When we booked our room in advance I asked for a room with a view as it was my partners birthday. I was guaranteed a room with a view. Upon arrival and post checking in we entered our room. The curtains were opened and disappointingly our view was a grey cemented wall, extremely disappointed with this. Breakfast was amazing and the bed was extremely comfortable.
