Very friendly and accommodating staff. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the breakfast selection excellent.
We did find our room too hot and there was a droning noise on and off all night which wasn’t related to the room itself. We mentioned it to the staff on check out and they immediately said they’d investigate. Excellent customer service throughout our stay.
