Comfy stay

Small comfortable room. We were only there to sleep. Beds were comfortable. The whole hotel smells beautiful. Didn’t have time to test the amenities but everything looked clean and well looked after. It’s on a quiet street. Perfect place to go home to after a busy day. Staff were friendly and helpful. I would stay here again.

Loved the access to the gym, but not all gym areas were available. My partner is an athlete and was prepping for a competition and needed a quiet space to yoga, but the yoga space in the gym was unavailable to be accessed or used; despite the facility not being booked by a personal trainer. The gym/spa staff were not helpful towards the request to use this part of the gym facility from a hotel guest, notwithstanding that the hotel promotes access to the gym. Also the spa was not available to be accessed by hotel guests on Saturday. These were the only disappointing parts of the stay.
