Self-contained studio living starts here for one person and perhaps his/her plus one. If they choose to share the en-suite shower room, small double bed, bags of storage, fitted kitchen and study area as a couple, theres no more to pay.
If one likes to spread out, then this more spacious studio could be for him/her. The top notch facilities feature an en-suite shower room, small double bed, storage, fitted kitchen and study area.
This beauty of a studio, even bigger than the Silver but with the same quality features and fittings, comes with space guaranteed. Ideal if one is flying solo and like to spread out or theres room enough for two to share at no extra charge.
Just a little roomier. Try it on for size.
Go Platinum and heres space to do your thing. Still treated to the en-suite shower room, small double bed, oodles of storage, fitted kitchen and study area but now with so much more clearance to enjoy them. More than enough room for two to share and the price doesnt change.
