9/10 Wonderful! (361 reviews)
Heating in the initial room was not able to be turned on. No equivalent room was available. I was told I would have to pay for an upgrade or stay in a freezing cold room. Finally, 2 hours later, I was advised I would be moved to another room at no additional cost. This should have been athe immediate and unquestioning solution. Very disappointing.
Breakfast was also very disappointing. The most limited (and prepackaged, so not fresh) range for breakfast I have ever encountered in extensive travels.

8.8/10 Excellent! (1,000 reviews)
Staff were excellent. Breakfast lovely. Amazing land.
Room warm and if you are in a room 200 plus it’s a lot of stairs with a suitcase.
