Hi Jack,
The vicinity of the hotel was excellent and the people were friendly enough and the room was clean.
I did miss no air conditioning and there was only 1 power point which was nowhere near the desk which seemed strange.
The service from Jack was perfect and he kept me informed all the way so if I come across again I will use you guys again.
Regards,
Steve Turner

Dear Tom,
Thanks for your email. For the Golden Leaf, generally speaking, it is a good experience. There are the tasty apples and free coffee and tea in the lobby. The people in the hotel are very nice. We just complain about the wi-fi in the hotel is not good, I can't use it in my room. I found many guests complaining about it in the reception. But anyway, thanks for your help.
Best regards.

Thanks to Tom who was a great help for us in finding an alternative hotel during the show after we heard at the last minute that our hotel was being used for refugee shelter. Every request for additional rooms was handled accurately and professionally. It is very pleasant to work with Tom.
