Pauline T. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

Excellent service by the check in staff on duty when we arrived who explained that our room was not ready despite it being our agreed arrival time of between 3 and 4pm. They offered to store our overnight luggage for us. Lovely surprise when we returned, we had been upgraded to a balcony room which made our night away even better. We've stayed at the hotel before and would definitely stay again

A special thank you to Karina and Jonathan for the lovely gift, it was such a thoughtful touch and truly appreciated.
