Really good Hospitality Near Airport

amazing staffexcellent mealnumerous choicesgreat breakfast
I arrived late evening, and the staff were amazing because the dining room was closing. They spoke with the chef and organised my meal. I had an excellent starter and main course. The menu had numerous choices. Compliments went to the chef. The breakfast included a superb selection of tea, coffee, and biscuits, things I value on a trip.
The room only had one available electrical socket, made charging my devices a bit tricky.
