Have stayed before prior to having a baby and it was amazing. Stayed now having a baby and requested a cot at booking time and also at check in which was confirmed. The room wasn’t ready so we had to go to our event and then come back and the cot wasn’t in the room and the baby was asleep and had to wait 40mins for the cot to arrive after calling. Called for ice took 40mins, called for cutlery took about 25mins . The baby change table in the lobby disabled bathroom was in a angle and had to prop your knee up to keep it level
