The elevators would be better if fitted with a card pass. It would stop patrons noisy children from playing in them ; it prevents paying guests waiting until kids finish their mischief!!

The only good staff member was Ruth in the restaurant - the only friendly 1 (the only 1 who smiled). I had to move rooms as the 1st stunk of bleach and chemicals. It burned my eyes. I had to deal with a young girl (Emma) who's supposedly a mgr, but isn't a good 1. I was also told not to leave after I checked in at 4 as I wouldn't get a parking spot when I came back! The 2nd room was better

1st time stay

Large, bright and spotlessly clean room with a balcony with chairs and table, overlooking the city. Lovely patio, great place to have a light bite or drink in the sunshine. Kettle with an additional coffee pod machine. No room safe or aircon, but with a big opening window and door to the balcony not necessary. Had dinner in the restaurant good value and choice. Staff all friendly and welcoming.
