We spent three nights, the staff were excellent, welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was excellent and great service. We had dinner on one evening, the food was good but the dining room was cold and lacked atmosphere. A fire would have added a lot. Overall, we booked last minute and were told that there were some buildings works but the extent was not properly explained. The Jack-hammer in the rooms close by excluded us from our enjoyment and we found the public rooms and corridors were cold. This was not reflected in the cost of our stay.
