Very Professional, friendly Experience . Mandip addressed all our questions with clarity and demonstrated patience. She acted promptly to our emails and delivered replies quickly and efficiently . She is a very pleasant lady and nothing was too much trouble . Mandip gave us the Confidence to make several changes which we had not considered to be more appropriate for meeting our needs. We thought the Meeting Rooms were very modern, clean and bright and particularly liked the Refreshments offered. Thank you
