Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was a pleasant surprise to be offered champagne upon check-in, excellent in room coffee availability with coffee grinder. There were snacks available in the room as well. It was nice to find a miniature gift candle at our door when we came home from the day out because we had requested Green service that day… (No need to come and clean our room). The location worked out well. The sliding wooden “door”to cover the windows gave a complete black out!"
