Customer feedback
We guarantee that all our feedback is genuine and can only be submitted by people who have booked through our websites.
Ms Paula Pope, August 2010: Reception service good- just a bit more direction as to how to find the room would help. I was given a room in Holland B and initially wandered round trying to get into that building. Otherwise OK and would recommend the institution.
Margarita Mariñelarena, August 2010: I would like to put special emphasis on the amability and professionalism of the staff at reception. They have been most helpful.
Erika Hülzburger, August 2010: I was very pleased and enjoyed my stay. I definitely plan to be back, possibly next year for the festival.
