The staff were great and helpful. I arrived by car and needed to park. A young lady on reception gave good instructions on how to get to the parking. The hotel room was great, and the bed was very comfortable.
The WIFI was not very good. Frequently it didn't work. So, I needed to use the 5G mobile data. I think that could be improved. I also found the breakfast quality mediocre. It was a bit of a letdown.
