Staff didn't tell us about heat/ac controls for the rooms downstairs. So when we changed the temperature to 17C and fan on high it never cooled. When we reported it thats when they told us we should have called downstairs.

Check in was flawless. The receptionist Yazmin was wonderful. Found my old IHG Priority number and added it to my reservation. That entitled me to late check out which was great. Parking is across the street in a huge open air NCP. I was a little concerned, but it seems to have good lighting and CCTV. Breakfast was varied and plentiful. Staff in general were all excellent. There was a brief moment of panic at noon when the fire alarm went off, but it was quickly silenced. Bedding was crisp and fresh. Great sized shower. All in all an excellent stay.
