Amazing and friendly staff. Clean room but few concerns like gas knobs are ‘loose’, kitchen sink was clogging (quickly resolved after a request to Neil, the receptionist), bad quality ladle and spatula, dishwasher had some dirt, not so good WiFi. Apart from these things it was a wonderful stay.

The staff were friendly, the room definitely needed a good cleaning, especially the bathroom. There was hair in several different locations and there was stuff under the sink like it hadn’t been swept. When walking into the room it also had an odor.
