Average all round at most

I arrived obviously at a busy time. 4 waiting to check in when I arrived and four more after me. One staff member doing check ins and was having technical difficulties with equipment. He really did his best not his fault but why was he on his own at a busy time. Surely the hotel knows its peak hours and should staff accordingly. Hotel itself feels grubby and tired. Drained chairs by lifts etc. Restaurant and bar staff in particular excellent.

This hotel is great for an early morning flights. My only complaint is that the rooms claim to be sound proof but from about 6am there were people out in the hallway talking loudly and opening and closing doors constantly.

You need to fix up how you have to drive through the airport to go round to the back of the parking cause it’s a pain when you have to drive through when people are getting dropped off or picked up from the airport

The check in process was easy and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. However the food was very average and I even had to return it, which I don't normally do. When I did, the kitchen staff were rude and gave me stick and started slamming things around the kitchen like a couple of spoiled children. When my food arrived back it was worse that the first time, and to the point that it was uneatable. Im extremely disappointed with the rude and unprofessional response for something that would have been an easy fix but instead I received sheer laziness, incompetence and an unacceptable addit
