Unfortunately I thought that the Expedia description a "Club Room (Accessible room) was a normal hotel room just possibly in a different part of the hotel. It actually means wheel chair accessible and a wet room to go with it. So not one of our better stays, staff very good but hotel was full or we could have transferred to another room, however my fault, a lesson for the future.
