Great location and lovely staff

nice room - large and light but the air con was hopeless! Bathroom very badly designed with nowhere to unpack toiletries except at the back of the toilet cistern! But the staff were really great and very welcoming and helpful. Dining room was a bit dull but we were given great recommendations for other places to eat! Really good location and pretty groovy vibe.
