Unfortunately time didn’t permit much.
Pros:

Didn’t have breakfast at room. View from the front was great. Fact that the hotel was adjacent to rooms was very convenient and we enjoyed a nice meal there. Suited our needs perfectly. Thank you

Cons:

Couldn’t fault anything. Staff friendly and helpful. Very convenient as we were there for funeral. Would use facility again f need arose.
