8/10 Very good

Great option in a lovely area.
Pro's: Large clean room, Comfortable beds. Close to restaurant that discounts Terrace customers. Great view of Glacier from courtyard Cons: TV was from the nineties. It was flat screen but had no hdmi output to allow stream or screen mirroring. Freeview only.
