late music difficult sleep

The breakfast was very good (i loved it).

I was disappointed with the noise level at night. Music from the bar continued well past 11:30pm. Our room happened to be right above the bar, so it was difficult to fall asleep after a long day.

Wonderful Warwick Getaway!

spacious room comfortable bed included breakfast accommodating staff

Our room, the Large Double Room, was surprisingly spacious! The bed felt AMAZING after a long day of travel. I appreciated that breakfast was included. It was plentiful and the staff was very accommodating (loved the fresh fruit!).

The stairs were a little steep, something to note if you have heavy luggage.

nice breakfast private bathroom comfortable bed convenient parking

the breakfast was really nice with lots of choices, i found it quite satisfying. the room was clean and had its own bathroom, that was a plus. the bed and pillows felt comfortable. parking at the hotel was very convenient and spared me any hassle.

the room was a bit warm and it was difficult to cool down, despite having the window open and a fan running. the shower felt quite small, especially for someone bigger.
