really good experience!!!

convenient locationhigh standardhelpful stafflimited ventilation
the location proved convenient. it was ideal for accessing train services. the on-site parking was great. i found the room and public areas were maintained to a high standard. reception staff were unfailingly polite and helpful.
the room was uncomfortably hot, and airflow was limited. the window opened only slightly, meaning there was insufficient ventilation. the combination made sleeping difficult.

The reception staff were alright nothing really good though.
The Wi-Fi was non-existent. I couldn't check emails. The room felt quite cold and drafty which wasn't exactly ideal and made it less enjoyable.
