Good. Felt safe and comfortable
Pros:

Staff were very welcoming, room was clean and comfortable. Would book again for sure.

Cons:

Unsure about the layout of the entrance , the reception desk looked a little makeshift. Gave the impression that laptops had just been set up when staff came on duty.
Football table a bit odd to see as you enter . However, staff very friendly and welcoming.
