The room was superbly clean and comfortable with a large, firm bed and several plump pillows, making it a breeze to sleep. However, there was a bit too much shake and vac powder on the carpets, and the size was slightly smaller than expected.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms had both positives and negatives, with a nice view overlooking Queens Gate but a setback of a room facing the rear without a window; however, the issue was quickly resolved. The service stood out for its excellent and cheerful assistance, making me consider a return visit. The dining experience was highlighted by fantastic options, yet there was a slight issue during breakfast. Overall, the stay offered a blend of pleasant and less perfect aspects.
