awesome stay!

clean roomseparate shampooroom safedelicious breakfast
I loved how clean the room was. It felt so fresh. the separate shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the shower? amazing! i also appreciated the body lotion near the sink, such a nice touch, and a safe in the room. delicious! i especially loved making my own waffles!
the room setup was a bit odd! i wished there was more storage because the closet was small, also, the sliding door between the bathroom and closet felt a bit strange, limiting privacy.

the breakfast offered a wide array of choices, including a tasty veggie haggis. the staff were helpful, especially with organising disabled parking. the beds were very comfortable, and i found the toilet clean. housekeeping staff were always smiling and did a wonderful job (thanks to the team from bangladesh!).
i found the air conditioning a little difficult to adjust, and it occasionally turned off at night, making the room a bit cold.

The staff stored our bags when we arrived early (so helpful!). They gave clear directions to city center buses. Our Queen Room was bright, cool, and spotlessly clean. Self-service breakfast had plenty of helpful staff and unlimited portions. I especially liked the waffles.
The shower screen had a design flaw, so water sprayed over the floor a lot.
