birthday planslate check
The staff assisted with birthday plans for my boyfriend. they organized balloons and pictures before our arrival. It remained a surprise. a complimentary late check out was provided too.
The hotel atmosphere is dimly lit. It may not suit every guest. the light over the kettle did not work. It was hard to see in the dark.

the staff were amazing. lindsay and andy were so friendly and helpful. the hotel was also very quiet.
there was no chair to put my clothes on. instead there was a settee at the bottom of the bed in front of a large screen tv. the light system took some working out. the service for breakfast was very poor.

some issues

friendly staffdirty hotelunclean bathroom
the staff were friendly.
I stayed for three nights and found the hotel to be quite dirty. the dim lighting seemed to mask the grime, not create ambiance. the bathroom floor was particularly egregious. It clearly had not been properly cleaned for a long time, made me question the overall cleanliness of the room..

the staff exhibited kindness i had not encountered before their assistance with my luggage was seamless i remember the warm smile i saw at reception it reminded me of a heartfelt welcome. the spaciousness of the room surprised me the king size bed provided comfort a small writing desk was available it had a lovely lamp for soft light a peaceful space for my thoughts.
the minibar prices were a bit higher than expected for similar items nearby i hoped for a slightly more reasonable cost i still enjoyed the offerings though.
