Fantastic Stay and Friendly Staffs
friendly staff early entry helpful man
I found the staff cute and personable. Hannah showed me around since I had not stayed before, and she was friendly. She rang me to let me know we could enter our room early, what a service! A helpful man took our bags to our room, so useful.
I had a tiny, average room. The single window view showed the car park. The noise from the rooms next door woke me early.
