The room had sufficient toiletries and fresh towels daily. I also used the parking at the front which was very useful. The staff were kind. They quickly addressed a minor issue with the room key. They ensured my experience was smooth and positive.

The tea selection in the room was somewhat limited. I would have appreciated a broader variety.
