Room was clean and quiet and got a good night's sleep. Breakfast was fine and at least had hot options, had everything but eggs. The buttons on the shower were missing, thankfully didn't affect the water temperature or pressure. A decent option all in all

Nice welcome from staff, comfortable room on 2nd floor accessed by lift or stairs. Bed comfy, sofa bed could have been better but was fine. Air conditioning was only set to heat mode (in October), but you could turn it off and open the window instead. Good breakfast selection. Overall a good stay.

Noisy room on the ground floor with mechanical sounding noises and a view out into an area where staff bikes and equipment stored so you couldn’t have the curtains open
