convenient location comfortable bed

I totally loved the location. Transport links were literally two minutes away. the tram was so convenient. the main hotel area looked fabulous. It made a striking impression. the toiletries in my room were gorgeous. I especially loved the scents. the bed was so comfortable. I slept like a log.

The shower curtain did not fully cover the shower. This created a small privacy issue.

broken lift overpriced drinks

The staff were friendly and helpful (Hannah, Geraldine, Edward, and Laura specifically).

The lift broke down . My fiancé is disabled and found it very difficult to get upstairs because of this broken lift. Drinks at the hotel were also overpriced, something that i didn't enjoy.
