A nice hotel in a convenient location. The staff were helpful and the facilities were good. The only criticism would be the breakfast as there are too many people with too few tables and so it’s a bit wild. Food was nice with plenty of options.

Nothing special I found the bombardment of emails requesting me to “upgrade” my room before I arrived to be incredibly crass and without class. Noisy room was an “upgrade” apparently. I could go on.
