Loved the hotel and its amenities. Great bar and restaurant inside and all the usual touches you’d expect from a Graduate property. Our room was very spacious with lots of storage space and the bathroom was great too. Comfy bed! Check in was good but any other time we went to reception including to check out, the member of staff couldn’t care less, didn’t ask how our stay was or anything! Just not used to this in the US!
