Great apart from smoking in public places
All excellent except when validating parking on arrival the machine is under cover before the hotel entrance however this area correctly is signed no smoking but people were smoking. I asked them to move which they did eventually but it is disgusting trying to input details whilst being poisoned but cigarette smoke. Shame staff cannot use CCTV to enforce this

The hotel was good. The main downside was the dimness of the lighting in the room. We are bright light people and found it quite gloomy. Perhaps have the main light on a dimmer switch?

Excellent service and very dog friendly 😃
The hotel has a large car park but was exceptionally busy as expected. The hotel was very modern and very clean, with the staff service being excellent, friendly and welcoming. We stayed with our dog and staff even gave a “doggy bag”! However, the room carpet was very wet not nice to walk on barefoot which caused the bathroom to be dangerously slippery. Perhaps when they clean carpet don’t use so much water. We were given more towels to make floor safe. Double bed is not very big. As a family room it would have been nice to have more electrical sockets especially these days. On the whole a good experience with a clean modern hotel room and bathroom, shower not exceptionally powerful. Breakfast was adequate with a dog friendly area.

Exceptional staff
We had a good stay at the hotel overall. There was a mix-up upon our arrival but the reception staff were incredibly professional, polite, and handled everything smoothly. They even offered us complimentary drinks, which was a nice touch! Breakfast was okay, but one morning it was incredibly busy and we had to wait for more cutlery and food to be replenished. However, the friendliness of the staff more than made up for it. What stood out the most was the politeness of the staff.
