Positive: I arrived early and popped into the front office just to confirm that I could park my car in the car park. I was met by a very friendly lady to instant checked and send.my room was ready. I was 3 hrs early and never expected this. They honestly couldn't have been more helpful or friendly
Negative: The only thing that I could find that i would of liked changed was number and.locations of the plug sockets in the room. It would have been great to have a socket by the bed. This is such a small thing and in now way dampened a fantastic hotel and stay.
