"The hotel was amazing. I especially liked NOT having an adjoining room, and the room was so quiet. Great that they had air conditioning too. All the supplies in the room were restocked every day. The sheets on the bed were of great quality, as were the towels. We had fresh water bottles every day plus there was a filtered water dispenser down the corridor."

"From checking to check out the staff were very friendly and helpful when required. The room was a good size and the air conditioning brilliant in what was a very warm evening/night. I sometime struggle with hotel beds but this was very comfortable and pillows good quality. I had dinner in the pub in the evening which was a very large Frampton burger. Unfortunately the continental breakfast was mainly left untouched as the pastries and fruit were left uncovered and too many flies in the restaurant/bar area."
