high quality breakfast buffet friendly staff eager staff out of way location non-working lift single lift small sink bathroom sink

The breakfast buffet had a superb range of choices. The options were all of high quality. I found it a great way to begin my day. The staff were very friendly and eager to help, both during the day and at night.

The location felt a little out of the way. It was less central than I had hoped. I noticed that one lift wasn't working. This sometimes caused delays. The sink area in the bathroom felt too small. It was not ideal for two people.
