Friendly boss/staff, great location, have all the utensils we needed, even kitchen napkins! They turned on the heat before we arrived, that's pretty thoughtful. There's body lotion, hair conditioner in the bathroom which is awesome as well. The room is clean and neat, quite quiet at night!

Well designed facilities, beautifully furnished and tasteful decor! Classic elegance. I like the daily replenishment of tea, coffee & little biscuits. TV & Netflix availability. Location is close to all amenities and the neighbourhood is genteel.
