john, the night porter, was very kind. i talked with him, and he was great company. the staff stored our bags and had the rooms ready earlier than usual. the location is ideal and easy for parking.
The room was very dated. I saw dirty walls. there were no hand towels, and the bath lacked an anti-slip mat. the bedroom lamp did not work, and the tv was in front of the mirror.

attentive staff efficient service
the night staff were so attentive. stewart and slaim anticipated needs and handled everything efficiently. it was a reminder that human service makes a big difference. their professionalism and empathy left a lasting impression.
i found an old chip on a chair pushed under the tv sideboard. this made me wonder about cleanliness standards. the tea and coffee area seemed grubby, and there was dust on the wall above the bed.
