Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Fabulous food, wonderful staff, the room was exceptional in taste, style and comfort. Only downside sadly was single glazing and the noisy traffic. But a truly fabulous place with the best staff. Would highly recommend and hope they can get double glazing!
