Positive: Very comfy. We used to come here 20 years ago.
Negative: We paid for top floor room for my 88 year old mum who struggles to walk so she could access the lounge for the wonderful view on that floor and her card stopped working at 11.30 am and she got told to go down to reception if she wanted to sort it out. I had to sort it out when I returned 8 hours later.
