Breakfast in bed was so delicious, exceeding expectations. the bed's comfort was amazing. I did not want to leave it! late check-out was very beneficial. staff are lovely, and i received complimentary prosecco upon arrival as an ihg rewards member.
the gym, though functional, seemed a little small. its size restricted the range of available equipment.
