Latenight seamless checkin.

There wasnt a light switch near bed. The body wash in the shower was empty. Im Coeliac and they didnt offer any gluten free bread or options. They were happy for me to bring my own food to dining room and helped heating milk. The choice of juice was nice. All staff were very helpful where they could be, and courteous. At the end of the day it was good, clean and comfortable, especially given what we paid.

This hotel has a lot to offer: the staff are friendly and professional, the free airport shuttle is incredibly convenient, and the restaurant boasts a great atmosphere. The room itself was clean, though the decor is somewhat dated. The only real issue was the showerhead, which sprayed water erratically, making a mess of the bathroom.
