decent overnight stay
tidy bathroom fresh milk tea selection loud noise smoking area sleep disruption
the room and bathroom were clean and tidy. i had fresh milk in the fridge and plenty of tea and biscuits. the staff replaced my milk immediately when i asked for more the second day.
the pub section had a "lock-in". it was noisy all night until 6am, so i didn't get much sleep. the noise was quite loud through the windows since i overlooked the smoking area
