"This hotel was decent enough and did everything I needed - clean, quiet and a basic breakfast included. While it worked fine with the access codes etc, the absence of any staff at all on site was slightly odd and made the whole experience feel a little impersonal. I value having someone to speak to in person if I have questions or need anything."
