not the best service

Booked a double room and was given a single bed, I asked to move but they could only move me for the second night. They said I would be refunded the difference but when I came back the day after they told me that that was not true. The same happened to another guest while I was waiting however they were unable to move his room. I also requested a VAT invoice however this was not sent over and I am currently on hold for 20 minutes trying to get this resent.

Easy to find, parking in Aston Place (pre-booked) as advised by the hotel - just 2min walk to hotel. Black out curtains, good shower, comfy bed with option of pillow type which we appreciated, good hairdryer. Great breakfast too! Overall, really good stay for one night. Only negative was the flush on the toilet wasn’t great and hard to use. Lifts were a bit slow to get to 17th floor too.
