Pathetic service by staff who mention he was the supervisor when I booked online travel 4 hours on the train, I informed that I will be check in late and the problem was I forgot my wallet which have all my Ids, and I have copies on my phone digital ones but cannot still check me in as it was all paid and no refund was made

The staff were very friendly and very helpful in the very short notice, check-in was easy and the room was perfectly fine for what I needed. Access to transport was easy (pretty much straight at the front door or not that far walk away) and food eateries are also close by.
