Lovely check in staff. Bed and bathroom very clean but a lot of dust in the room. The floor lamp base was very dirty and along the edges of the room but everything else was fine. Convenient location and as said, lovely staff.

Unfortunate to get locked out of my room for 90 mins on the first night due to key access not working this then proceeded to happen on night 2 also. Once this issue was resolved eventually everything was fine.
