The lobby was clean and bright and the staff lovely, but on arrival in my room the toilet had clearly not been properly cleaned. A member of staff was sent to deal with this, but he didn’t remove his gloves after cleaning the toilet and touched the door knob to leave. I had little confidence in the cleanliness of my room.

I really enjoyed my stay here compared to other places I’ve stayed at. I was really impressed with the breakfast buffet. Parking was easy as it was in front of the hotel and the rate was cheaper compared to other places near by I’ve stayed at. The staff were very friendly and professional. I will definitely be staying here again on my next trip.

I hate it when a hotel advertizes that a room "sleeps five" but then they charge extra for a third person. Then, after they charge extra, they provide only two coffee pods (not three), two complimentary bottles of water (not three) and no extra towels. This kind of fleecing always seems counterproductive to me: this is what I remember about the brand, not anything they might have done right.
