tasteful decorationfabulous selectiongreat snacksloud snoringon site staffpricey room
The room was tastefully decorated. I really liked the shower room. there was also a fabulous selection of teas, coffee, and hot chocolate. great snacks were available too.
The guest above me snored loudly. I could hear it in my room. it spoiled my stay, the lack of on site staff meant that i had no option but to endure it. in general the room was quite pricey for what was on offer.

Really good Stay

well-equipped roomkettlelarge spaceabsent fridge
The room was well-equipped. I appreciated the provided kettle with tea and coffee. The large space for clothes and luggage cases in the bedroom was useful. On checking out, I was offered to keep my luggage in the office for the day. It was indeed helpful.
The room had no fridge. I needed to keep medicine cool. This absence required me to seek an alternative solution.

good locationno liftno assistance
the location was fine.. it was easy enough to get around from there.
I was really annoyed that there was no lift available. Hauling my luggage up several flights of stairs was not fun, and i wasn't offered any assistance with my bags either, which i found pretty poor.
