Sometimes prices go up after we have gone to press. Sometimes there is a seasonal or other variation from the printed version. Rooms Under this heading we indicate the number and type of room - and whether the rooms have baths (usually with shower or shower attachment as well) or just showers. Facilities Under facilities...
