small room inconsistent service
The room felt quite small Considering the price I paid. IT also lacked a bathtub, a bit of a letdown after a long day. Some staff members were very attentive, while others seemed less so. This felt inconsistent. I also noticed a mistake on my bill at checkout. It was nearly £70 overcharged, and I had to point it out.
