"The staff were always quick to respond to questions and requests. My room was very comforable with a king sized bed, hugh desk area. The kitchenette provided a microwave, good size under counter fridge, a kettle, pod coffee maker and even a milk frother. A bit of dust on the top of pictures and ledges was the only fault i found. My kettle was not working and was replaced as soon as i reported it."
