 There was major building work going on right outside the front of the hotel Realise that this is obviously essential but the drilling went on from 08 30am until 19 30pm during our entire stay Luckily we were out most of the day but did come back a couple of times in the afternoon evening and this was very disruptive The air con did not work and given the noise from the building work this meant that we could not open the windows and the room was therefore very stuffy The hotel also has cockerels roaming the grounds and they are very noisy from about 2 00am onwards constant screeching The noise issues building work and cockerels was the major factor in not providing a higher rating There were actually a lot of positives about the hotel and would return again once the work has been completed would also take ear plugs in future 
 The rooms were very large and comfortable with good wash room facilities powerful shower Reception staff very helpful though a little over run when we first arrived Very good for transport links bus train and metro Large selection of breakfast buffet items which set us up nicely for the day
