What people say
Well kept open public space, children's playground adjacent and many locals walking their dogs. A great space for some sun and quiet. Grave sites are maintained as is the landscape.
Aside from it being a cemetery, it is walkable area to get from different part of Fairlight.
Rooms were very small and single person only. The light wasn't working and there was nowhere to unpack my suitcase which was not delivered by room service. Bathroom was non-existent and there were no options for food to be delivered. Worse still they have locked the door and it seems I could be stuck here for quite some time. Location is good and the rooms are quiet which are the only positives.
