Fantastic Stay at a Great Hotel!

spacious roommodern designpowerful showerreally good food

I found the hotel with no issues. The twin room I stayed in was quite spacious and featured a modern design! The shower was powerful and refreshing, just what I needed to start my day right. The pub attached to the hotel was another win, I tell you. The food there was really good, with so many choices for every taste.

I noticed the restaurant was very busy at times. The team seemed a bit overwhelmed. This led to a couple of minor delays in service.
