The staff were accommodating and helpful during my two night stay. The room was quite spacious, entirely pleasant and the bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. There was marked grouting in the shower but other than that the room was spotlessly clean (drapes, skirting boards, surfaces etc). I would happily be a returning quest when I am next in the area. Thank you for a pleasant stay.
