a lovely experience

helpful staff quiet space amazing food
the staff were helpful, arranged a quiet space for my online meetings before check-in. the food was AMAZING!!! i had an early takeout breakfast arranged so i could travel to work early. the breakfast exceeded my expectations.
The room walls were thin, and i could hear noises from outside. I found this slightly disruptive.

Excellent Amenities and Service

I found USB ports conveniently placed in the room. The en-suite bathroom included a decent sized rain shower. The hotel's location is near the local cricket pitch and a golf club. I appreciated the attentive staff .
The cutlery was dirty during my dinner at the restaurant. They added a service charge to the bill, so I had to ask to have it removed. I feel this practice should be more transparent.
