really good staff good facilities comfortable bed cold room small radiator unjoyable area
The staff were really good. Jason and Maureen went out of their way to. The hotel provides good facilities with plenty of tea and coffee. The bed was also comfortable.
My room was cold. I could not enjoy the living area because it was too cold to sit in. Management gave me a small oil filled radiator. I needed to keep it on .

A repeat visit well worth it!
delicious food cute staff members nice touch well prepared food
I've stayed here before for work! The food remains consistently well prepared and delicious. The chefs cook the meals in full view. This provides a nice touch. My wife enjoyed her visit and asked to join my next work trip if we stay here again. The staff members are so cute, and the rooms are great.
The room needed a bit more heat! It was difficult to use the living area because it was too cold to sit there. Management provided a small space heater, but it needed to be on constantly.
