Cold tap in bath did not work . Our room was extremely noisy during the day and until 1am in morning, not due to other guests, but hotel operations of some sort. Noise started at 6am again. Issue with room key at end of evening had to return to reception for new key. 25 min wait for table at breakfast. Staff were kind but under pressure. Breakfast had not been added to our bill, had to ask for it to be added on. Valet parking was excellent. Disappointing stay based on previous experiences, mostly based on lack of sleep, did not leave refreshed.
