Clean room and lovely staff. We arrived late at night and there was an incident being dealt with in the foyer by police and ambulance but the staff on duty were great even escorting us some of the way until we were clear of the incident. The staff are a credit to the hotel, clearly taking pride in customer service. We would gladly stay again.
