Good hotel spoilt by some problems
Nice hotel and friendly staff but asked for quiet room and heard the noise from nearby nightclub for most of the night; TV wouldn’t work as someone had apparently stolen the chrome cast stick and it kept turning off; bedside lights didn’t work; there were no USB sockets anywhere so we couldn’t charge our phones.
