The reception staff were so lovely and kind. Kendal especially! I was there with my 3 kids (one being 7 weeks old) and I had forgotten my charger for my phone so she let me borrow hers to charge it up which I really appreciated. Then when I asked if I could have 30 mins later on check out time this also wasn’t a problem when speaking to reception again. It’s the little things like this that make peoples day and I’m very grateful. Also the staff at dinner were really lovely too.
