Great Hotel & Location for Excel

Check in was efficient and we were greeted by Redz who was very welcoming and made us feel very welcome and appreciated. Room was good, clean and spacious. If I had one issue I found the bed a little hard and uncomfortable and the two nights I didn’t sleep too good. We ate one night in the restaurant, we were served by Alex who again offered us excellent service. We did have a few issues with the food being cold and Alex did his best to rectify this. It was a great location to stay for Excel and although we have mentioned a few issues we would recommend the hotel and would choose to stay again.
