An incredible team who let us use the facilities whilst we waited as we had arrived a few hours early for check in. They were then able to let us check in early allowing us to start our day in a relaxed and peaceful state knowing we didn’t need to worry about luggage or checking in. Rooms were wonderful, very spacious and we loved our rubber duck souvenir. Thank you to the wonderful team who made a holiday feel even better.
