The staff were great. The person using the disabled bedroom was frozen as their heating didn't work and neither did the radiators in their corridor.

Liked: Cleanliness
Ok but noisey
Room was smallish but ok. My main gripe was that I had a sign on my door saying do not disturb but had housekeeping chatting away outside my door at 9am when I was hoping for a lie in. I also heard them banging on other doors and calling out “housekeeping.” Plus I could hear people shouting outside and it turned out there was a building site outside my window. Not relaxing at all.
