It was lovely to have our suitcases which were stored for us waiting in our rooms. All staff were very friendly and not just those on the desk or at breakfast. We met other staff in the lift who were all very curteous. The bedrooms were clean. Bed linen was crisp and felt luxurious. The large television appreciated as was the fresh milk for making drinks in the room. The choice of breakfast items to order on the menu was very good. Food was hot and tasty.
