Acceptable stay

food choice friendly staff comfortable bed cracked sink toilet flush departure delay
The breakfast had a good choice of food in the morning. The staff were professional and friendly . The room was modern and nicely fitted out with a comfortable bed.
I found the sink to be cracked in my room. The toilet flush was not great. This delayed my departure from the hotel during check out, since a man had to drill it open.
