The team was genuinely helpful from check-in onward. They offered great directions for our evening plans. Breakfast and the morning service were excellent. The room was spacious and clean, including good quality furnishings. I found the bedside lights with usb charging ports particularly useful.
The bathroom size felt a bit small. I think a little more space there would enhance the comfort further.
