Lovely room on the 10th floor with great views.Extremely comfortable bed. OK buffet breakfast.
Never enough tea bags provided unless you drink Peppermint or Chamomile. I had to ask for extra tea bags then only two extra were left. A small negative in an otherwise pleasant stay.

I really like the rooms here, they feel spacious, comfortable and very clean. The location was fabulous the staff I encountered this time round were friendly and helpful. Special mention to Donna in House keeping, what a lovely lady, I noticed her saying Hi to all the guests she’s came across and was super helpful when doing our room.
