"Lovely staff we came across; check in staff, concierge, luggage facilities. The check in staff were particularly helpful and upgraded us to a studio room. The bed was really comfortable, the room quiet with excellent amenities. When we checked out the member of staff was particularly helpful looking to see if a travel card I had lost had been recorded as found on the system or in the back office. The night staff were more dismissive. Will definitely return."
