The staff were lovely, nothing is too much to ask. The property is in a fantastic position with easy walking to amazing restaurants, and constitution Dock. Breakfast is included each day, with lovely selections of cereals, pastries, toast, yogurt and fruit, etc. I loved that there were beautiful plates and China tea pots and cups for our use. It would be hard to choose somewhere else to stay. We had a two bedroom apartment with lots of space. The public areas were beautifully decorated and inviting. A very relaxed and comforting place to stay. Great value for money
