The experience felt underwhelming. check-in lacked a personal touch. The staff seemed preoccupied. i'd booked a room with a specific request, it was my anniversary, but it went unacknowledged.

a slightly underwhelming experience
the location was certainly convenient.
the room was quite cold upon arrival and took a very long time to heat up. the electrics only worked when the key card was in the wall, so it was difficult to warm the room before we went out.

I received a complimentary upgrade to a superior double room (what a nice surprise!). The bar on the fifth floor has a balcony and provided great views of the racecourse. The hotel offers convenient parking on site.
The bathroom shower was a bit weak.
