Room was clean and spacious but lacking in a few softer touches like cushions, pictures on blank walls etc. Coffee making facilities were basic compared to similar 4* standard hotels I've stayed in for work. Bathroom was cold even with towel radiator permanently on. Staff seemed very busy in the restaurant probably not enough of them.
