Our room was decorated in a slightly ...whacky style. Maybe more design over substance particularly in the bathroom where more shelving would be useful for toiletry bags. I enjoyed the deep bath but feel sorry forthecleaners as it has no shower attachment on the tap to wash down the bath walls. The shower is similarly only an overhead...
