"Stayed for 2 nights in a Cozy Room. Although next to the lift, there was no noise at all. The food was cooked and presented really well. Excellent choice at breakfast. The staff were all very friendly and informative. The restaurant staff on our first night worked particularly hard under very difficult circumstances. Only two servers, one on her first day, had no help on an extremely busy service. Management should have realised this and stepped in. They coped very well and did an amazing job."
