    The front desk and housekeeping staff were delightful. All other staff was not. The breakfast staff & bartenders were almost rude ~ acted like waiting on you was a bother. The bar was about the only place the internet worked yet rarely was anyone there to get you something to drink.

    The staff here are really great. I made a mistake with my booking and they ammended this for me without charging, something they were within their rights to do. This is a very friendly and very well run hotel and I gladly recomend it.
