Staff friendly and polite, room clean. Coupme of things wernt happy with, no a proper kingsize bed two singles put together so ridge down the middle, wifi cutting in and out. Caution if you want an executive room with a sofa in it as not all have these and you have to tell them tou want this before you go.
