Lets say we stay here often but this time wasnt great . Think the lift was more of an amusement as one was out of order again and traveled to every floor to get to ours . We had one coffee sachet in our room to share. As normally 2 or 4. Breakfast was lovely thank you and the male member of staff was doing his job very well and polite.
