Room was nice and quiet on the top floor. Felt safe that you needed keycard to get to stairs/lift. Liked that breakfast was included and any staff we spoke to were friendly and helpful. The only thing I didn’t like about the room was that all the lights were on one switch, so it was all or nothing…not great if one of you is awake when the other isn’t.
