Very speedy check-in and hassle free check-out. Extremely friendly staff in reception. Breakfast was a delight with unusually varied options and choices. The room faced inwards but that was a delight in itself having the dining area glass pyramid to regard. Shower was outstanding, both flow and heat. And the cooler in the room was very welcome

Good location and access to transport links. Very good breakfast with lots of choice. The reception staff were not as friendly or helpful as would expect, e.g. they did not tell us the best way to our room. We had to carry two cases up stairs as a consequence.
